Abstract

Criteria and techniques to support the establishment of a semantic dictionary for database interoperability are described. The techniques allow the analysis of conceptual schemas of databases in a federation and the definition and maintenance of concept hierarchies. Similarity-based criteria are used to evaluate concept closeness and, consequently, to generate concept hierarchies. Experimentation of the techniques in the public administration domain is discussed.

Semantic heterogeneity resolution in federated databases by metadata implantation and stepwise evolution

A key aspect of interoperation among data-intensive systems involves the mediation of metadata and ontologies across database boundaries. One way to achieve such mediation between a local database and a remote database is to fold remote metadata into ...
On Using Historical Update Information for Instance Identification in Federated Databases
COOPIS '96: Proceedings of the First IFCIS International Conference on Cooperative Information Systems

To support database interoperability in federated databases systems, it is critical to be able to identify (potentially) equivalent data instances from individual autonomous database components. Since the components in a federation are autonomous, their ...
SQLtoKeyNoSQL: a layer for relational to key-based NoSQL database mapping
iiWAS '15: Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications & Services

Today, many applications produce and manipulate a large volume of data, the so-called Big Data. Traditional databases (DB), like relational databases, are not suitable to Big Data management. In order to solve this problem, a new category of DB has been ...
