- KurzfassungAbstract
Entity Relationship (ER) diagrams are among the most popular formalisms for the support of database design. To aid database designers in building (extended) ER schemas, Description Logics (DLs) have been proposed and successfully used as a tool for reasoning about such schemas. In this paper, we propose the extension of ER diagrams with dependencies on attributes and show how such dependencies can be translated into DLs with concrete domains. The result is an integrated approach to reasoning with conceptual models and attribute dependencies. - Bemerkung: Note: To appear
