Conceptual modeling is about describing the semantics of software
applications at a high level of abstraction in terms of structure,
behavior, and user interaction. Embley and Thalheim start with a
manifesto stating that the dream of developing information systems
strictly by conceptual modeling - as expressed in the phrase "the
model is the code" - is becoming reality. The subsequent
contributions written by leading researchers in the field support
the manifesto's assertions, showing not only how to abstractly
model complex information systems but also how to formalize
abstract specifications in ways that let developers complete
programming tasks within the conceptual model itself. They are
grouped into sections on programming with conceptual models,
structure modeling, process modeling, user interface modeling, and
special challenge areas such as conceptual geometric modeling,
information integration, and biological conceptual modeling. The
Handbook of Conceptual Modeling collects in a single volume many of
the best conceptual-modeling ideas, techniques, and practices as
well as the challenges that drive research in the field. Thus it is
much more than a traditional handbook for advanced professionals,
as it also provides both a firm foundation for the field of
conceptual modeling, and points researchers and graduate students
towards interesting challenges and paths for how to contribute to
this fundamental field of computer science.
