| Abstract: | To improve service efficiency and stay completive, information centers have to adopt continuously new techniques in system development, software and hardware which move the state of the art forward in information management. Object-oriented database management systems (OODBMS) are a recent development in the field of database systems. Their adoption and use will increase the capabilities and efficiency of an information centre. OODBMSs preserve the main features of classical database management systems and at the same time eliminate their disadvantages. Inadequacies of the present data models for new applications are highlighted, the features of OODBMSs are presented and the usefulness of an OODBMS is illustrated by modeling a typical application in an information centre. |
