Summary
Summary
This text provides the Intelligent Database Environment for Advanced Applications (IDEA) methodology for the development, maintenance and application of modern database systems. It seeks to enable the reader to take advantage of current advances in software engineering techniques. The book is split into three parts covering an introduction to the models and languages used in the methodology; the process of analysis, design, prototyping and implementation; and how to put the methodology to work.
