Using Unity to Semi-Automatically Integrate Relational Schema

Unity is an architecture for integrating relational databases that performs three processes: metadata capture, semantic integration, and query formulation and execution. The foundation of the architecture is a naming methodology that allows concepts to be integrated across systems. Semantic naming of schema constructs increases automation during integration and provides users with physical and logical access transparency during query formulation.
