The MOMIS methodology for integrating heterogeneous data sources
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Mediator EnvirOnment for Multiple Information Sources (MOMIS) aims at constructing synthesized, integrated descriptions of the information coming from multiple heterogeneous sources, in order to provide the user with a global virtual view of the sources independent from their location and the level of heterogeneity of their data. Such a global virtual view is a conceptualization of the underlying domain and then may be thought of as an ontology describing the involved sources. In this article we explore the framework’s main elements and discuss how the output of the integration process can be exploited to create a conceptualization of the underlying domain.

Extensional Knowledge for Semantic Query Optimization in a Mediator Based System
Query processing in global information systems integrating multiple heterogeneous sources is a challenging issue in relation to the effective extraction of information available on-line. In this paper we propose intelligent, tool-supported techniques for querying global information systems integrating both structured and semistructured data sources. The techniques have been developed in the env...

because the storage systems lack structural and application homogeneity in addition to a common ontology. The semantic differences generated by a lack of consistent ontology can lead to conflicts that range from simple name contradictions (when companies use different names to indicate the same data concept) to structural incompatibilities (when companies use different models to represent the s...
متن کاملQuery Manager functional specifications
Query processing in global information systems integrating multiple heterogeneous sources is a challenging issue in relation to the effective extraction of information available on-line. In this report we delineate the functional specifications of a query manager in the context of a data integration, wrapper/mediator based system, the MOMIS system. The developed techniques rely on the availabil...

MOMIS (Mediator EnvirOnment for Multiple Information Sources) is an Open Source Data Integration system able to aggregate data coming from heterogeneous data sources (structured and semistructured) in a semi-automatic way. DataRiver is a Spin-Off of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia that has re-engineered the MOMIS system, and released its Open Source version both for commercial and ac...
متن کاملExploiting Agents to Support Information Integration
Information overloading introduced by the large amount of data that is spread over the Internet must be faced in an appropriate way. The dynamism and the uncertainty of the Internet, along with the heterogeneity of the sources of information are the two main challenges for the today’s technologies related to information management. In the area of information integration, this paper proposes an ...
