This paper proposes a domain-oriented layer above a relational data base management system ( DBMS ) software in the creation of a computer integrated manufacturing (CIM) shell. The shell consists of two parts: an intelligent database design environment (IDDE) which will aid the design and implementation of an integrated database system; the deductive capability which will aid the subsequent implementation of decision support systems. The application domain is represented by the discrete engineering manufacturing industry.
