Title: Towards A Generic Conceptual Model
for Data Warehouse
Abstract: During the last few years, developers
had proposed various approaches to the conceptual design of Data Warehouse
(DW). Due to the variation and differences between these proposed approaches,
this paper will first show the multidimensional modeling properties that
are required to be supported in a conceptual model then it will compare and
evaluate the proposed conceptual modeling approaches. After Evaluation, the
model that was categorized to be the best model for DW conceptual Design
will be taken through this paper for further extensions to address all multidimensional
properties that it had missed and also extend it to support the conceptual
design of Temporal DW.
