DW DESIGNER

Short Project Description

The whole project includes the development of a Conceptual Multidimensional Model (CMDM), the definition of quality properties for multidimensional models, the development of a transformation based approach for logical design, the construction of logical design begining from conceptual model, and the integration of these works in a case tool.

DW Designer is currently being developed in the context of master's theses and graduate projects.
