Energy distribution companies nowadays use different IT-systems from vendors within their infrastructure. Those systems often use proprietary data exchange formats and must be connected to other systems. Building specialized adaptors for interconnection between the systems is the most common and timeconsuming task for IT-departments at energy companies. The Common Information Model (CIM) establ...

Integration of the World Wide Web and other information sources is strongly required in the recent advanced application environments. Although information sources contain various types of data objects, the volume of multimedia objects has been increasing drastically. This paper proposes a multimedia integration scheme using SMIL in a mediator-based integration system. The scheme achieves dynami...

Whilst it is a common task in systems integration to have to transform between di erent semantic data models such inter model transformations are often speci ed in an ad hoc manner Further they are usually based on transforming all data into one common data model which may not contain suitable data constructs to model directly all aspects of the data models being integrated Our approach is to d...

Research on schema integration leads to the identification of many different conflict types. Some of them received much attention and many papers proposed solutions for their resolution. However, literature usually focuses on traditional problems, whilst new kinds of schema discrepancies, due to the object orientation or the generalization concept, are not really treated. Moreover, most of the ...

Conceptual integrity is required for the result of data integration to be cohesive and sensible. Compromised conceptual integrity results in "semantic faults," which are commonly blamed for latent integration bugs. A logical model of conceptual integrity in data integration and a simple example application are presented. Unlike constructive models that attempt to prevent semantic faults, this m...

This paper shows the problem of multi-source heterogeneous data integration in the audit data storage and access problems. Based on the analyses of existing data integration model, combining with the service-oriented architecture theory, this paper proposes a data center pattern, which is suitable for multi-source heterogeneous data integration model to audit. Furthermore this paper puts forwar...

strategic environmental assessment can be viewed as a process to integrate the concept ofsustainable development into planning. in this context, sea can be regarded as a method that regulates theplanning process to a state of sustainable development. however, to reach that goal it is necessary to achieve full integration of planning and the sea process.therefore this paper considers the integra...

in this study, the relationship between inflation and economic growth of iran is conciliated with a perspective on uncertainty of inflation. we use a generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (garch) model that make possible this advantage that conditional variance of error term changes along the time, also, vector error correction model (vecm) is stable. for surveying the co-in...

The regional waters in Singapore Strait are characterized by complex hydrodynamic phenomena as a result of the combined effect of three large water bodies viz. the South China Sea, the Andaman Sea, and the Java Sea. This leads to anomalies in water levels and generates residual currents. Numerical hydrodynamic models are generally used for predicting water levels in the ocean and seas. But thei...
