Towards data abstraction in networked information retrieval systems
1999
Information Processing & Management
Uncertain inference allows for query processing even on incompatible database schemas. ...
Physical data independence separates search operators from access paths, thus solving text search problems related to noun phrases, compound words and proper nouns. ...
Here the queries formulated in the powerful query language of the front-end are mapped onto database-speci c formulations, which either retrieve the exact answer or a superset of it. ...

Towards a standard query model for sharing decision-support applications
1994
Proceedings. Symposium on Computer Applications in Medical Care
When such applications include queries to electronic patient databases, the queries must be translated to conform to local database specifications. ...
In this paper, we propose an abstract formalism, called the Standard Query Model Framework, for specifying a standard clinical data model and for supporting the automated and reliable translation of queries ...

The model-assisted global query system for multiple databases in distributed enterprises
1996
ACM Transactions on Information Systems
Conventional technologies, such as schema-based query languages and hard-coded schema integration, are not sufficient to solve this problem. ...
This article develops a new approach, a "model-assisted global query system," that utilizes an on-line repository of enterprise metadata-the Metadatabase-to facilitate global query formulation and processing ...
Formulating a Nested Query. A successfully formulated global query can be kept as a run-time view by giving a unique name, which can then be recalled to formulate a nested global query. ...

A Quantitative Comparison of XML Schemas for Taxonomic Publications
2007
Biodiversity Informatics
We have examined if they facilitate formulation and correct processing of queries that are common when it comes to taxonomic literature. ...
We also compare the performance of these queries on documents that are marked up with the different schemas. Finally, we propose extensions to the schemas that enhance correctness of query results. ...
All three schemas share the problem that Concept Queries cannot be formulated sufficiently exactly. ...

However, query formulation remains obstinately difficult for large classes of users. ...
These, in contrast to the approach adopted here, don't allow the creation of separate and independent user views -don't filtrate the schema. ...

Architecture of a semantic data integration system based on a semantically complete model and a semantically complete query language
2006
Programming and computer software
The simplification of the users' work with the system is achieved due to some special properties of the semantically complete model (SCM) and of the semantically complete query language (SCQL), which provide ...
Using these operations, practically any query on the SCM schema can be formulated. ...
If it is required to preserve the semantics of a query independently of the context, then the query must be formulated using the association selections that refer to the associations that are included ...

An XML Schema-based Semantic Data Integration
2006
2006 Fifth International Conference on Grid and Cooperative Computing (GCC'06)
Such data integration raises challenging issues: (1) Support for multiple independently-managed schemas, (2) Ease of schema evolution, and (3) Simple schema mappings. ...
A simple RDF-based ontological representation scheme is used for only structural relations among independently-managed XML schemas from different institutes or domains We present the design and implementation ...
This global layer is designed to allow the user to formulate queries without understanding those multiple schemas in detail. ...

2008
Proceedings of the 2008 international symposium on Database engineering & applications - IDEAS '08
We focus on the integration into efficient distributed query processing and evaluate our approach in a series of experiments. ...
In this paper, we argue for a unified and distributed infrastructure providing a repository for semantic data by offering location transparency and advanced query services. ...
Query Formulation This section clarifies the basic approach and highlights the tight and easy integration of schema correspondences into query formulation. ...

Reconsidering Multi-Dimensional schemas
2004
SIGMOD record
The primary focus is the relevancy of Multi-Dimensional logical schemas. After enumerating the advantages of such schemas, a number of caveats to the presumed advantages are identified. ...
Transforming a 3NF schema into a MD schema may actually obscure important semantic information necessary to formulate accurate queries. ...
This makes it easier to formulate queries. • The typical data warehouse query gracefully maps to the star schema. • The star schema could serve as a generic logical schema for all data warehouses. ...

UniStore: Querying a DHT-based Universal Storage
2007
2007 IEEE 23rd International Conference on Data Engineering
Moreover, querying schema data (attributes, correspondences) has to be supported as well. ...
The first question raises two main problems: We need a generic and flexible schema for structuring data and we have to deal with heterogeneities on schema and on data level. ...
In order to face the challenges of data organization, we follow the idea of the universal relation model allowing schema-independent query formulation. ...
