Title :
Interactive manipulation of object-oriented views
Abstract :
An approach to providing view support in object-oriented (O2 ) databases is presented. The approach uses what is called a hyper-view and combines results from research on database design and man-machine interfaces. A mechanism that allows interacting with databases through hyper-views and built on top of the O2 system is described. The approach is based on conciliating stored data and their visualization. Not only views corresponding to one class, but also multiclass views are considered. Hyper-views are supported by ToonMaker, a user interface generator system implemented for the O2 database management system
