| |
| − | BIRD was based on main principe of Saada project [http://amwdb.u-strasbg.fr/saada/article.php3?id_article=32].

| − | ===Conceptual Data Model===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In order to automatically integrate heterogeneous data, we have designed several business data model corresponding to the real format of the data banks. Figure below illustrates the conceptual data model of the BIRD system. It can simultaneously host several bank types. Each type can itself concern several User Defined banks having the same format. Thanks to this conceptual model, BIRD can host different versions of a given data bank and manage them so that the programs launched on grid computing within an application can exploit the same data version during their computation time.

| − | The data model of a data bank is predefined in an XML configuration file . This metadata is used to create the Java and SQL code. The code generation is launched at the moment of the configuration of the BIRD data bank or at data loading or reloading. In the example given figure 3, the metadata of Genbank are used to create Genbank-EST, Genbank-Refseq.

| − | This Figure illustrates the business model for Genbank. Each bank can have several associated entries. Each entry has its associated information like Dbref, SEQData, FTSource,... According to our design, the Java classes of the business models are automatically generated by BIRD. Only instances of classes inherited from super ObjectPersistence will be recognized by the BIRD API. This super class contains common attributes and methods for all generated classes.

| |
| − | The creation of a database goes through some principal stages :
| |
| − | Initially the relational schema system (meta-model) is created when BIRD is installed.
| |
| − | In the second phase, the configuration module creates the business data model including SQL and Java codes corresponding to the predefined metadata given by the XML configuration. Then, the system analyzes some integration rules to select the data files and proceed to their conversion and loading into the relational tables .
