We study the data transformation capabilities associated with schemas that are presented by labeled directed multi-graphs and path equivalence constraints. Unlike most approaches which treat graph-based schemas as abbreviations for relational schemas, we treat graph-based schemas as categories. A morphism M between schemas S and T , which can be generated from a visual mapping between graphs, i...

The project presented in this paper aims at developing a set of theoretically wellfounded conceptual schemas for buildings, spaces and user organisations. The schemas shall be used as part of a computer based prototype information system for co-ordinated design of buildings and user organisations. The schemas are presented in the formal graphical language EXPRESS-G. The first sections of the pa...

BACKGROUND Purpose of this study is comparing early maladaptive schemas which are active in patients suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety disorders together, considering recent DSM-5 changes through which OCD has been placed in a separate and new diagnostic level. METHODOLOGY This research is a causal-comparative study. 151 persons were categorized in three groups of peopl...

A huge volume of data is analyzed by organizations to understand their clients and improve services. In many cases, these are stored separately in different database systems need be integrated before being used analysis tools or prediction applications. One the main tasks integration process definition global schema. Defining a schema context NoSQL demanding task since it necessitates dealing w...

Converting relational database schemas to XML schemas is important as applications originally written to manipulate relational data are converted to XML-enabled applications. Most research has focused on the challenging problem of efficiently extracting relational data through XML views. However, another important challenge is determining good XML schemas from existing relational schemas, so th...

The complexity of databases is increasing continually. The work of several designers become necessary. Therefore it is interesting to improve the design process with a new phase devoted to information integration , in order to take into account the designers'viewpoints. In this paper, we present an integration process which allows similarities to be discovered between the schemas under study. I...

Intercultural communication is concerned with communication across cultures. Since cultures as well as languages differ from one another in significant ways, speakers conceptualize the world around them in different ways. These cultural conceptualizations form part of the collective cognition of a speech community or cultural group. This paper is an attempt to delineate some cultural schemas in...

The capabilities of XSLT processing are widely used to transform XML documents into target XML documents. These target XML documents conform to output schemas of the used XSLT stylesheet. Output schemas of XSLT stylesheets can be used for a static analysis of the used XSLT stylesheet, to automatically detect the XSLT stylesheet of target XML documents or to reason on the output schema without a...
