Building data integration systems today is largely done by hand, in a very labor intensive and error prone process. In this paper, we describe a conceptually new solution to this ...
Abstract. Database systems are islands of structure in a sea of unstructured data sources. Several real-world applications now need to create bridges for smooth integration of semi...
Currently, there are two main basic approaches to data integration: Global-as-View (GaV) and Local-as-View (LaV). However, both GaV and LaV have their limitations. In a GaV approa...
We address the problem of large-scale data integration, where the data sources are unknown at design time, are from autonomous organisations, and may evolve. Experiments are descr...

The demand for data integration is rapidly becoming larger as more and more information sources appear in modern enterprises. In many situations a logical (rather than physical) i...
Data integration in medical applications is a crucial and sensitive task. It turns out that there are rigid factors like heterogeneous, distributed data sources, security, and comp...
: Integrated access to distributed data is an important problem faced in many scientific and commercial applications. A data integration system provides a unified view for users to...
Abstract. The problem of dealing with inconsistent data while integrating XML data from different sources is an important task, necessary to improve data integration quality. Typic...
Object matching or object consolidation is a crucial task for data integration and data cleaning. It addresses the problem of identifying object instances in data sources referrin...
Data warehousing methodologies share a common set of tasks, including business requirements analysis, data design, architectural design, implementation and deployment. Clinical da...
