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

According to the multidimensional conceptual modeling technique which is based on UML, the mapping algorithm between the multidimensional conceptual model is described based on XML and UML class diagram, and an application base for the wide use of this technique is given.展开更多
