Appendix XTENS 2 Database Schemas

Transcription

1 Appendix XTENS 2 Database Schemas Here I report the database schemas used in XTENS 2 as described in Chap. 5. The schema in Fig. A.1 represents the persistence layer for the UML class diagram shown in Fig The schema in Fig. A.2 refers to the EAv catalogue implementation used to execute the performance tests. The schemas have been drawn from the database testing installation using the graphic tool DbVisualizer Free 9.2.
