SAURA-GUERRA, José Enrique  and  GONZALEZ-GONZALEZ, Luisa. Analisys of OCL capability to generate business integrity constraints. Rev cuba cienc informat [online]. 2013, vol.7, n.4, pp.1-15. ISSN 2227-1899.

Every system implementation most ensure that not only an operation has been applied but also that doing that does not break any information system's integrity constraints defined in the conceptual model. To guarantee a correct definition of the constraints that each information system carries out is necessary to know the main characteristics and classifications of the integrity constraints and the tools that ensures their definition in the conceptual model. This paper describes how restrictions are classified, different types of constraints and causes of constraints violations. Also, Object Constraint Language is characterized, as an language for constraints definition, integrated with UML and widely used to this end. The main objective is to obtain the tools that ensures the correct indentification of restrictions and it integration with a modeling language such as UML.

Keywords : Conceptual model; integrity constraints; information systems; OCL.
