Composite Information Systems: Resolving Semantic Heterogeneities
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Composite Information System/Tool Kit (CIS/TK) is a prototype implementation strategy for accessing and integrating data from multiple disparate database systems. This prototype focuses on data access and schema integration, and in particular on the integration of disparate data semantics. In this paper we describe the CIS/TK prototype as well as research important for the further development of semantically integrated disparate database systems.

Semantic Information Integration in the Large: Adaptability, Extensibility, and Scalability of the Context Mediation Approach
There is pressing need for effectively integrating information from an ever increasing number of available sources both on the web and in other existing systems. A key difficulty of achieving this goal comes from the pervasive heterogeneities in all levels of information systems. Existing and emerging technologies, such as the Web, ODBC, XML, and Web Services, provide essential capabilities in ...
متن کاملResolving Schematic Discrepancy in the Integration of Entity-Relationship Schemas
In schema integration, schematic discrepancies occur when data in one database correspond to metadata in another. We define this kind of semantic heterogeneity in general using the paradigm of context that is the meta information relating to the source, classification, property etc of entities, relationships or attribute values in entity-relationship (ER) schemas. We present algorithms to resol...
متن کاملCentralized Clustering Method To Increase Accuracy In Ontology Matching Systems
Ontology is the main infrastructure of the Semantic Web which provides facilities for integration, searching and sharing of information on the web. Development of ontologies as the basis of semantic web and their heterogeneities have led to the existence of ontology matching. By emerging large-scale ontologies in real domain, the ontology matching systems faced with some problem like memory con...
متن کاملBuilding Secure Data Warehouse Schemas from Federated Information Systems
Introduction There are many heterogeneities among preexisting informations sources, such as DataBases (DBs), particularly semantic heterogeneities (see our chapter “Semantic Heterogeneity” in [1]). Any secure Federated Information Systems (FIS) must solve them, and deal with a): how schema levels are related to security, and b): operations on schemas to convert from level to level. We present t...
متن کاملSurviving the Heterogeneity Jungle with Composite Mapping Operators
Model transformations play a key role in the vision of ModelDriven Engineering. Nevertheless, mechanisms like abstraction, variation and composition for specifying and applying reusable model transformations – like urgently needed for resolving recurring structural heterogeneities – are insufficiently supported so far. Therefore, we propose to specify model transformations by a set of pre-defin...
