Maintaining Relational Consistency in a Graph-Based Place Database
نویسندگان
چکیده
People use natural language (NL) descriptions to communicate spatial information, mostly referring to space in qualitative terms. In this research, a graph database is used to store such qualitative spatial information as derived from NL descriptions. It focuses on developing and testing qualitative spatial reasoning mechanisms to maintain relational consistency within the graph database. The study provides a first step into using a graph database to storing and querying qualitative spatial data from NL place descriptions, and provides some insights for the system implementation.

GlobData: A Platform for Supporting Multiple Consistency Modes
GlobData is a platform that provides an object-oriented view of wide-area-networked relational databases with replicated data for ensuring high availability. We discuss the embedding of protocols in GlobData, for maintaining the consistency of replications. The protocols are able to alternate between three different modes of consistency. Modes can be changed on-line and per session, i.e., GlobD...
متن کاملMaintaining Mappings between Conceptual Models and Relational Schemas
This paper describes a round-trip engineering approach for incrementally maintaining mappings between conceptual models and relational schemas. When either schema or conceptual model evolves to accommodate new information needs, the existing mapping must be maintained accordingly to continuously provide valid services. In this paper, the authors examine the mappings specifying “consistent” rela...

متن کاملEnhancing the Availability of Networked Database Services by Replication and Consistency Maintenance
We describe an operational middleware platform for maintaining the consistency of replicated data objects, called COPla (Common Object Platform). It supports both eager and lazy update propagation for replicated data in networked relational databases. The purpose of replication is to enhance the availability of data objects and services in distributed database networks. Orthogonal to recovery s...
متن کاملRound-Trip Engineering for Maintaining Conceptual-Relational Mappings
Conceptual-relational mappings between conceptual models and relational schemas have been used increasingly to achieve interoperability or overcome impedance mismatch in modern data-centric applications. However, both schemas and conceptual models evolve over time to accommodate new information needs. When the conceptual model (CM) or the schema associated with a mapping evolved, the mapping ne...
