Résumé
Written by its originator, Metapattem: Context andTime in
Information Models introduces the technology and eases the
learning curve with clear explanations, practical examples,
and numerous illustrations. This book explains the
fundamental metapattern concepts of context and intext,
along with type, time, and compositions. In particular, it
discusses how the recognition of multiple contexts results
in a powerful approach to conceptual information modeling.
A large-scale case study also demonstrates how the
metapattern approach can be applied to a financial
accounting system and other real-world applications.
To help readers build on familiar territory, Metapattem
compares the metapattern approach with object-oriented
analysis and modeling, offering metapattern alternatives
that demonstrate its richness in providing context-oriented
solutions. In addition, the author reviews major
established design patterns in data modeling, analysis, and
business process engineering, and shows how the metapattern
provides a frame of reference for understandîng,
accommodating, and transcending these patterns. The author
also provides powerful modeling heuristics that take into
account plurality through the definition of context, and by
doing so, bring consistency and uniformity to information
systems.
