Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Engineers perform a wide variety of tasks as they analyze, design, and construct structures. This results in unpredictable database requests that vary from project to project. A multi-modal database interface accommodates the needs of engineering database users by allowing engineers to use the mast appropriate database interface mode at any time during query formulation. COMEDI, a Concurrently Multi-modal Engineering Database Interface, aids engineering interactions with database management systems by providing multiple query methodologies simultaneously. COMEDI uses an object-oriented data and query description language along with a central processor to link several query modes to each other and to a relational database management system. This provides a flexible, extensible, and portable design that accommodates new modes and new database systems easily.
