In this paper, the technology of features and object-oriented method, a spatial-temporal data model is proposed, which can be applied in the large information system engineering like the ＂Digital Ocean＂, and this paper discusses the application of spatial data model, marine three-dimensional raster data model and relation data model in the building of Data Warehouse in ＂China Digital Ocean＂, and concludes the merits of these models.展开更多

Some features about metadata are analyzed. The limitation of existing metadata model is compared with the new one. The metadata model is described in XML which is fit for metadata denotation and exchange. The well structured data, semi structured data and those exterior file data without structure are described in the metadata model. The model provides feasibility and extensibility for constructing uniform metadata model of data warehouse.展开更多

Since organizational data management uses the metadata channel for creating a bi-directional flow, when correctly managed, metadata can save both time and resources for organizations. This paperI will focus on providing theoretical aspects of the two concepts, together with a short brief over a proposed model of design for an organizational management tool.展开更多

This paper is propose a new multidimensional data model based on the partial ordering and mapping. The data model can fully express the complex data structure and semantics of data warehouse, and provide an OLAP operation as the core of the operation of algebra, support structure in levels of complex aggregation operation sequence, which can effectively support the application of OLAE The data model supports the concept of aggregation function constraint, and provides constraint mechanism of the hierarchy aggregation function.展开更多

Moreover, a methodological triangulation method was also adopted to test whether different methodological approaches produce convergent findings about warehouse performance measurement （WPM）. These three different methods are the SEM model, the multiple case research study, and validation of the SEM model using data from 80 companies in Thailand and a company in Australia. With the results from the triangulation method, it is obvious that the SEM model can be used to measure the performance of warehouses in Thailand and Australia. Since the SEM model consists only of significant indicators, it is more appropriate than company G＇s scorecard. Furthermore, the SEM model can overcome the limitations of traditional models by allowing companies to compare their performance over time.展开更多

It is suggested that managing iterative changes in BIMs is a database problem, exacerbated by the long transaction times needed to support collaborative design progression. This is yet to be resolved in the construction industry and better solutions are needed to support the underlying workflows and computing operations for seamless collaboration on BIMs. With this in mind, this paper proposes the use of the structural and semantic characteristics of BIM objects as a mechanism for tracking changes across co-developed solutions. The creation of object signatures, using hash codes derived from their characteristics, provides a potential mechanism for object comparison and effective change recognition and management.展开更多
