On Conceptual Micro-Object Modeling
While much research has been devoted to data modeling, little attention has been paid to developing constructs for modeling micro-objects. Most data models consider attributes as functions of macro-objects. This research proposes a Conceptual Micro-Object Model (CMoM), which considers the attribute...
