Title
Time sequence ordering extensions to the Entity-Relationship model and their application to the automated manufacturing process
Abstract
Moyne, J.R., T.J. Teorey and L.C. McAfee, Jr., Time sequence ordering extensions to the entity relationship model and their application to the automated manufacturing process, Data & Knowledge Engineering 6 (1991) 421-443. New extensions to the entity-relationship (E-R) model have been developed to represent time sequencing and ordering aspects of information flow, and to represent the integration of control (programming) information into a database. The model constructs specify an implementation ordering of records in a relational database table. Time sequencing refers to an implementation of process information flow as a result of this ordering. The modeling constructs are needed to more completely model process recipe information flow in a typical automated manufacturing facility. The development of these E-R extensions is pursued using a data model for the factory of the future as a motivation and development vehicle. The extensions are defined formally and possible variations of the constructs are given. Further, the incorporation of the constructs into the existing E-R model semantics and the transformation of these extensions to ordering properties and integrity constraints on a corresponding database implementation is discussed.
