SI-Designer (Source Integrator Designer) is a designer support tool for semi;automatic integration of heterogeneous sources schemata (relational, object and semi;structured sources); it has been implemented within the MOMIS project and it carries out integration following a semantic approach which uses intelligent Description Logics-based techniques, clustering techniques and an extended ODMG-ODL language, ODL I 3 , to represent schemata, extracted, integrated information. Starting from the
