An object-oriented approach to data/knowledge modeling based on logic
K. Lee, S. Lee · 2002
The object-oriented data model has gained popularity in developing database systems for new applications which include AI, CAD, and OIS. In modeling such applications, it is necessary to capture not only data semantics but also knowledge semantics, such as constraints and deductive rules. The authors describe an approach to data/knowledge modeling which combines various modeling features of the object-oriented data model with deductive capabilities of the deductive database system.>
