Abstract
The problem of integrating the graphical and non-graphical information in one data base has not yet been adequately solved. The feasibility of solution has been shown in the literature (Williams, Giddings 76). This paper attempts to identify the specific features exhibited by graphical information structures as used in engineering application. It further focuses on the ways the users interact with the stored information, Bearing these features in mind, some requirements on data base management systems will be inferred.
