As a solution to this issue, a multidatabase integration environment, CIMBASE, has been developed. CIMBASE adopts an object-oriented data model and provides users with a series of software tools: a query language, a pre-compiler, a graphical database schema editor,a graphical query interface and a form based query generation tool.This paper discusses in detail the major aspectsof CIMBASE: its object-oriented data model, query language interpreter and the design and implementation of itsprc-compiler. The design and algorithms presented in this paper provide a solid foundation for research on multidatabase integration.展开更多
