UML-based Forward Database Engineering

Abstract

The paper presents the most recent achievements in developing AMADEOS - the first online web-based tool aimed at business process model-driven database design. The preexisting AMADEOS was able only to derive an initial conceptual database model automatically, while other design phases were not supported. The most recent development efforts resulted in the complete coverage of the database design process, from conceptual model to physical database, by using the standard UML notation.
