I'm not sure what you really want. But this book contains interesting stuff about data modeling, including creation of hierarchical models: http://www.artechhouse.com/default.asp?Frame=Book.asp&Book=1-58053-038-9&Continent=EU

I never knew so much could be done with outer joins...

It's not easy reading (and I need to read it again), but I haven't seen much other literature about the subject.

If I'm right about your being interested in hierarchical data processing/modeling, you may find this page useful:
