Abstract
This paper investigates the evaluation process of conceptual specifications developed using either Extended-Entity-Relationship (EER) or Unified Modeling Language (UML) conceptual models. We describe criteria to define the quality of a conceptual representation and metrics allowing the design to compute automatically the quality of a given conceptual schema. The intrinsic value of a given schema quality is not relevant. However, our approach us to select, among several schemas representing the same reality, the best one according one or several quality criteria.
