| Abstract: | A methodology is presented for selecting query languages suitable for
certain user types. The method is based on a trend model of query
language development on the dimensions of functional capabilities and
usability. Expected developments are exemplified by the description of
"second generationâ database query languages. From the
trend model are derived: a classification scheme for query languages; a
criterion hierarchy for query language evaluation; a comprehensive
classification scheme of query language users and their requirements;
and recommendations for allocating language classes to user types. The
method integrates the results of existing human factors studies and
provides a structured framework for future research. |
