Abstract

This paper is intended to present three years of experimental practice using a data base design method.

This method uses a 3 model ANSI SPARC like approach.

The formalism used for the conceptual and external models is the individual formalism as formerly presented at Freudenstadt IFIP TC2 conference. The formalism used for the internal model is a subset of the CODASYL DBTG proposal.

The starting point of this method is the analysis of the perceived real world expressed in terms of an organization description, already computerized applications and planned computerized applications. The ultimate goal is the DDL schema of the chosen DBMS.

This method is supported by several tools interfaced with a data dictionnary which is a representation of the different models at the various steps of the method.

This method has been taught and used in several projects in the French government as well as in private companies.

A first evaluation is presented and proposals for future developments in the method are made.
