ConceptBase
All 4 MOF levels for Entity-Relationship Diagrams displayed in the ConceptBase Graph Editor
ConceptBase is a deductive and object-oriented database management system developed at University of Aachen and Tilburg University. It is mainly used for conceptual modeling and metamodeling in the domain of software engineering and related domains.
ConceptBase combines the following features:
- Object-oriented concepts such as classes and inheritance
- Deductive rules evaluated by a Datalog engine
- Active rules conforming to the event condition action (ECA) paradigm
- Recursive function definitions
- Metamodeling with arbitrarily many abstraction levels (metaclasses, meta metaclasses)
