Designing and Implementing an Object-Oriented Database Using C++

A Network Management System Provides Operations and Network Management functions fo monitor, maintain, and manage a network. The success of a network management system depends on the configuration database,, abbreviated as CDB hereafter, which provides information about equipment and facilities within the network it manages. This paper describes an object-oriented database, TAC-CDB, for a government private network management system. The Entity- Relationship (ER) model is used to analyze the requirement. We have been able to design objects for different functions: referential integrity, database view, and cache mechanism. Viewing these functions as objects allows us to facilitate alarm processing and maintain data consistency.
