A Foundation for Multi-Dimensional Databases
Summary: Foundational conceptual multi-dimensional model for OLAP, separating structure from content to enable simple, transparent data manipulation. Defines an algebra and calculus, proves their equivalence, and shows the data cube operator is expressible; positions the model as orthogonal to implementation.
