Resumen

The number of On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) applications in the market has dramatically increased in the last years. Most of these applications provide their own multidimensional (MD) models to represent main MD properties, thereby making the design totally dependent of the target commercial OLAP application. In this paper, we present a Computer-Aided Software-Engineering (CASE) operational environment to accomplish the design of an OLAP applications totally independent of the target commercial OLAP tool. The designer uses a Unified Modeling Language (UML) compliant approach to represent MD properties at the conceptual level. Once the conceptual design is finished, the CASE tool semi-automatically generates the corresponding implementation into the target commercial OLAP tool. Therefore, our approach frees conceptual design from implementation issues.
