Generation of external schemas in ODMG databases

A method for generating external schemas in object oriented databases in the ODMG framework is proposed. External schema generation involves obtaining all the relationships existing between the classes selected to make up an external schema. This generation process is part of an external schema definition system that we are developing, which allows the definition of external schemas in ODMG. External schemas generated with this process do not extend the object oriented paradigm, and the generation of unnecessary intermediate classes is avoided.
