Discuss Hyper Cube and Multicube.
Multicube: In the multicube model, data is segmented into a set of smaller cubes, each of which is composed of a subset of the available dimensions It means we can view the cube in multiple dimensions.

Hypercubes and Multicubes
Multidimensional databases can present their data to an application using two types of cubes: hypercubes and multicubes. The Hypercube is the cube with four Dimensions. In the hypercube model, as shown in the following illustration, all data appears logically as a single cube. This intuitive representation is a hypercube, a representation that accommodates more than three dimensions. At a lower level of simplification, a Hypercube can very well accommodate three dimensions. A hypercube is a general metaphor for representing multidimensional data. Often, Multi Dimensional Structures (MDS) are used to represent such data.
Multicube: In the multicube model, data is segmented into a set of smaller cubes, each of which is composed of a subset of the available dimensions It means we can view the cube in multiple dimensions.
