Consideration of the database design process highlights specific problems in requirements determination, development of the overall conceptual schema, and the Data Base Administrator bottleneck. An alternative design strategy is described which first acquires the separate user views and then systematically merges these views to derive the overall conceptual schema. The user views may be specified independently and are not limited to a single data model formalism.
