Intelligent Methods in Virtual Databases

Considerable progress has been achieved in the area of virtual database systems, but substantial problems still persist. In this paper we discuss two current research directions: The resolution of extensional inconsistencies among databases participating in a virtual database, and the automatic incorporation of new information sources based on a process of discovery. Our approach to both problems involves to some degree what is often referred to as soft computing techniques.
