ICOM
A Tool for Intelligent Conceptual Modelling

Guided Tour

In this guided tour you will find simple commented examples explaining the basic principles of the ICOM conceptual modelling tool. Please note that the presented examples are probably non realistic and over-simplified: they are skeleton diagrams and they serve only the purpose of explaining ICOM. You can find the project files associated to the examples in the ICOM distribution. We have divided the on-line tour in two parts:

Basic concepts: Conceptual Modelling with Extended Entity-Relationship,
Advanced: Conceptual Modelling of Integration Systems.
