"On-Line Analytical Processing" tools are used to extract information from the "Data Warehouse" in order to help in the decision making process. These tools are based on multidimensional concepts, i.e. facts and dimensions. In this paper we study the meaning of facts, and the dependencies in multidimensional data. This study is used to find relationships between cubes (in an Object-Oriented framework) and explain navigation operations.
