Abstract
This paper presents a graphical user interface for object-oriented databases, called GOMI (Graphical Object Manipulation Interface). It allows inexperienced users to easily perform complex operations such as selection, projection, navigation, naming, persistence, display, creation, deletion, and update against objects. Since these operations can be easily and uniformly posed on graphs, the objects and the reference relationships between them can be intuitively displayed and manipulated.
