Abstract

This paper is based on a conceptual frame- work for the design of databases consisting of view modeling, view integration, schema analysis and mapping and physical design and optimiza- tion. View modeling involves the modeling of the user views using a conceptual/semantic data model; the view integration phase merqes user views into a global model which is then mapped to an existing database environment and subse- quently optimized. Here we use the data model proposed by Navathe and Schkolnick to model user views and develop a methodo1og.y for view inte- gration. View integration issues are examined in detail; operations for merging views are defined and an approach to automating the view integration process is described. The proposed approach is being partially implemented at the University of Florida.
