Super Peer

Semantic web offers new opportunities to multi-sources integration field, and many approaches like P2P systems are revisited taking into account the new requirements. In this chapter, the authors present their P2P heterogeneous and distributed data integration system. It is a super-peer system, where peers are regrouped by type of data (relational, image, text, etc.) around a super-peer which contains a domain ontology. Peers data sources are exported in a common format in the form of a semantically rich ontology. Schemas reconciliation is done by matching domain and local ontologies by the use of a similarity function whose contribution is based on the direct and indirect semantic neighborhood. Queries are described using ontologies, then routed towards relevant peers thanks to a semantic topology built on top of the existing physical one.

The Web

Integrating data sources published on the Web requires an integration strategy that guarantees the local data sources’ autonomy. A multidatabase system (MDBS) has been consolidated as an approach to integrate multiple heterogeneous and distributed data sources in flexible and dynamic environments such as the Web. A key property of MDBSs is to guarantee a higher degree of local autonomy. In order to adopt the MDBS strategy, it is necessary to use a query language, called the MultiDatabase Language (MDL), which provides the necessary constructs for jointly manipulating and accessing data in heterogeneous data sources. In other words, the MDL is responsible for solving integration conflicts. This chapter describes an extension to the XQuery Language, called MXQuery, which supports queries over several data sources and solves such integration problems as semantic heterogeneity and incomplete information.

Integrated Operations

The Oil & Gas industry is moving forward with Integrated Operations (IO). There are different ways to achieve data integration, and ontology-based approaches have drawn much attention. This paper introduces an ontology-based distributed data integration framework (ODDIF). The framework resolves the problem of semantic interoperability between heterogeneous data sources in semantic level. By metadatas specifying the distributed, heterogeneous data and by describing semantic information of data source , having "ontology" as a common semantic model, semantic match is established through ontology mapping between heterogeneous data sources and semantic difference institutions are shielded, so that semantic heterogeneity problem of the heterogeneous data sources can be effectively solved. The proposed method reduces developing difficulty, improves developing efficiency, and enhances the maintainability and expandability of the system.

Unified View

Integrating data from multiple heterogeneous data sources entails dealing with data distributed among heterogeneous information sources, which can be structured, semi-structured or unstructured, and providing the user with a unified view of these data. Thus, in general, gathering information is challenging, and one of the main reasons is that data sources are designed to support specific applications. Very often their structure is unknown to the large part of users. Moreover, the stored data is often redundant, mixed with information only needed to support enterprise processes, and incomplete with respect to the business domain. Collecting, integrating, reconciling and efficiently extracting information from heterogeneous and autonomous data sources is regarded as a major challenge. In this paper, we present an approach for the semantic integration of heterogeneous data sources, DIF (Data Integration Framework), and a software prototype to support all aspects of a complex data integration process. The proposed approach is an ontology-based generalization of both Global-as-View and Local-as-View approaches. In particular, to overcome problems due to semantic heterogeneity and to support interoperability with external systems, ontologies are used as a conceptual schema to represent both data sources to be integrated and the global view.
