Abstract

A modelling approach COmplex INformation Specification (COINS) equipped with a recording and replying mechanism is proposed to facilitate the pr ocess of providing a live interactive record of information that can then be queried and replayed. The COINS model consists of three components: 1) an Entity Relationship (ER) model; 2) a rule mechanis m which deals with logic constraints among attributes, entities and relationships and; 3) a re corder component which provides support for the ide a of replaying complex information. The main function of such a recording and replying mechanism is to record a sequence of information scenes so that thi s sequence, as a history of the evolving informatio n for the recorder, can be queried and replayed. The puzzle game Sudoku is used as an example in this paper for illustrating the COINS modelling approach.
