Applying integration of conceptual data modelling methods within information system development: A case study

Abstract

One of the most important phases in information system development is data modelling, where conceptual data modelling is essential. There are many methods that describe the process and give formal and heuristic guidelines to creating a conceptual data model. In this paper we present most used methods for conceptual data modelling. Since applying each method separately give partial data model, we contribute by proposing an integration of these methods and show with case study that integration of these methods lead to more complete data model.
