Abstract

This paper aims to provide guidance toward the design of the logistics business platform (LBP) database. In this paper, the structure of the database model of LBP was analyzed and a method of building database model based on the UML was put forward. Building the database model of LBP, four steps must be included, which demanded the characteristics such as complexity of the service object, diversification of the deal mode, standardization of the business process, normalization of the transaction data, and diversity of the data format. First, business trading model was achieved in the stage of requirements collection and analysis toward the application entity. Second, use case diagram and activity diagram which reflects the relationships of the use cases were acquired according to the business trading model. Thirdly, the static structure model was achieved with the obtention of class model via the analysis of entity classes and their relationships. Finally, the database model of LBP was completed on the basis of the mapping rules which can convert the class model to the database model.
