Aspects of Data Base Systems for Computer Aided Design

  • Conference paper
Book cover Methoden der Informatik für Rechnerunterstütztes Entwerfen und Konstruieren

Part of the book series: Informatik-Fachberichte ((INFORMATIK,volume 11))

Abstract

This paper is intended to familiarize with data base system technology. In its first part it describes the objectives and structure of data base management systems and discusses important concepts. Special emphasis is put on the aspects of interactive usage. In the second part data base management systems are reviewed with respect to requirements of computer aided design. In the third part a proposal for an interactive problem solving environment is discussed to give further insight to the interactive design process. Textbooks and surveys may serve for additional information on data base systems, e.g. /DATE75, WEDE74, ACM76, BLAS76/.
