 A dimension is an abstract concept
that groups data that shares a
common semantic meaning within the
domain being modeled.
 A dimension is composed of a set of
hierarchies and a hierarchy is in turn
composed of a set of levels.

 A level corresponds to an entity type
in the ER model. It describes a set of
real-world concepts that, from the
application’s perspective, have
similar characteristics.
 For example, Product, Category, and
Department are some of the levels
Instances of a level are called
members.

 A level has a set of attributes that
describe the characteristics of their
members.
 In addition, a level has one or several
keys that identify uniquely the
members of a level, each key being
composed of one or several
attributes.

 A fact relationship expresses a focus
of analysis and represents an n-ary
relationship between levels.
 A fact relationship may contain
attributes commonly called
measures.
 These contain data (usually
numerical) that is analyzed using the
various perspectives represented by
the dimensions.

 We classified measures as
 additive,
 semiadditive,
 nonadditive.

 Temporal Measure can be either
• Support for Non-aggregated
Measure
• Support for Aggregated Measure
