A pattern-based framework for database reusability

Wang, BeiHu; Liu, Xiaodong; Kerridge, Jon

Abstract

The development of database application systems will benefit from high reusability because similar design circumstances recur frequently in database developments. This paper presents a framework to cope with design reuse in database environments. The framework proposes a reuse process supporting particular features of the database domain. Data intensive design patterns are used to record reusable artefacts in both data schema and processing. An XMI based pattern definition language is developed due to its standard information exchange format and popularity among software communities.
