Abstract
Based on a subset of the Unified Modeling Language, the authors ’ objectoriented approach to building data warehouses frees conceptual design from implementation issues. Most developers agree that data warehouse, multidimensional database (MDB), and online analytical processing (OLAP) applications emphasize multidimensional modeling, which offers two benefits. First, the multidimensional model closely parallels how data analyzers think and, therefore, helps users understand data. Second, this approach helps predict what final users want to do, thereby facilitating performance improvements. Developers have proposed various approaches for the conceptual design of multidimensional systems.
