Abstract

The Graphical Object Query Language (GOQL) is a query language that complies with the ODMG standard and which runs on top of the O₂ DBMS. The GOQL User Interface comprises the User's View (UV) and the Folders Window (FW). The UV is a graphical representation of an ODMG database scheme, which hides from end-users most of the perplexing details of the object-oriented database model. The FW is a condensed version of the UV that serves as canvas upon which ad-hoc queries are constructed. The paper addresses principles behind the design of User Interfaces and discusses features and characteristics of the GOQL User Interface.
