Graphical Deep Knowledge Representation In Vodak/Vml Object-Oriented Database, Jue Wang May 1993

Graphical Deep Knowledge Representation In Vodak/Vml Object-Oriented Database, Jue Wang

Theses

Applying Object-oriented concepts to the design of complex graphical interface has received great attention in the database and knowledge representation disciplines. Traditional CAD systems can not support efficient environments for design processes because they store information about all the objects for display purposes but do not store any knowledge for reasoning purposes. They are called "knowledge poor". "Graphical Deep Knowledge" in Artificial Intelligence has been proven successful to represent knowledge about objects for display purposes as well as reasoning purposes. We introduwd the theory of "Graphical Deep Knowledge" into the object-oriented database s stem VML to design a "Knowledge rich" …


Implementation Of An Object-Oriented University Database Using Vodak/Vml Prototype-2/C++, Bheeman Lingan, Madhumathi Tulasiram May 1993

Implementation Of An Object-Oriented University Database Using Vodak/Vml Prototype-2/C++, Bheeman Lingan, Madhumathi Tulasiram

Theses

Object-oriented database (OODB) technology has become very popular and successful in recent years. Currently, there are many commercial object-oriented database systems available that are used for developing large and complex real world applications. In addition, there are many research prototypes of object-oriented databases available. In a joint research project of the CIS Dept at NJIT and GMD-IPSI an object-oriented data model called the Dual Model was developed. Using this Dual Model a university environment database schema was designed. This univesity database schema was implemented using the VODAK/VML OODB prototype - 1. The university database was then reimplemented using the C++ …
