Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2006 in the subject Computer Science - Applied, grade: 1.0, University of Dusseldorf "Heinrich Heine", language: English, abstract: Federated information systems provide access to interrelated data that is distributed over multiple autonomous and heterogeneous data sources. The integration of these sources demands for flexible and extensible architectures that balance both, the highest possible autonomy and a reasonable degree of information sharing. In current federated information systems, the integrated data sources do only have passive functionality with regard to the federation. However, continuous improvements take the functionality of modern databases beyond former limits. The significant improvement, on which this work is based on, is the ability of modern active database systems to execute programs written in a standalone programming language as user-defined functions or stored procedures from within their database management systems. We introduce Enhanced Active Database Systems as a new subclass of active databases that are able to interact with other components of a federation using external program calls from within triggers. We present several concepts and architectures that are specifically developed for Enhanced Active Databases to improve interoperability and consistency in federated information systems. As the basic concept we describe Active Event Notifications to provide an information system with synchronous and asynchronous update notifications in real-time. Based on this functionality, Enhanced Active Databases are able to actively participate in global integrity maintenance executing partial constraint checks on interrelated remote data. Furthermore, we present an architecture for a universal wrapper component that especially supports Active Event Notifications, which makes it perfectly suitable for event-based federated systems with real-time data processing. This tightly coupled wrapper architecture is used to build up the Dígame architecture for a peer data management system with push-based data and schema replication. Finally, we propose a Link Pattern Catalog as a guideline to model and analyze P2P-based information systems.

How does versioning relate to archiving? What are the design issues associated with your Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) approach? What is the service support function within the SOA Infrastructure? What is replication and why is it important for GIS data management? Will additional development tools be required for data cleansing and conversion? Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a challenge or meet an objective is the most valuable role... In EVERY group, company, organization and department. Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?' This Self-Assessment empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Federated Database System investments work better. This Federated Database System All-Inclusive Self-Assessment enables You to be that person. All the tools you need to an in-depth Federated Database System Self-Assessment. Featuring 957 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Federated Database System improvements can be made. In using the questions you will be better able to: - diagnose Federated Database System projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices - implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals - integrate recent advances in Federated Database System and process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines Using a Self-Assessment tool known as the Federated Database System Scorecard, you will develop a clear picture of which Federated Database System areas need attention.

Active database systems have received increasing interest from both research and industrial communities. However, trigger conditions in the active rules are often difficult to specify, especially as the complexity of the events and/or condition: increases. To remedy this problem, we propose an active database system that supports rules with conceptual terms, approximate operators, and complex events. The conceptual terms and approximate operators are user and context sensitive. By introducing these high-level constructs, we not only simplify the rule specification process, but also increase the rule expressiveness. Knowledge-based relaxation techniques are used for rule specification and relaxation. High-level concepts and approximate operators used in rules are first relaxed into low-level active rules by using a tree-type knowledge structure called Type Abstraction Hierarchy which can be generated automatically from the database using clustering algorithms. The low-level rules are decomposed into a set of database triggers, which are then submitted into commercial active relational databases for simple trigger-processing. Thus, our proposed high-level active database system supports complex event detection without modification of the underlying database systems. The proposed active database system with high-level rule processing and complex event detection has been implemented at UCLA. The system operates on top of commercial relational databases that demonstrate the feasibility of high-level rule processing and complex event detection.

Modern information systems differ in essence from their predecessors. They support operations at multiple locations and different time zones, are distributed and network-based, and use multidimensional data analysis, data warehousing, knowledge discovery, knowledge management, mobile computing, and other modern information processing methods. This book considers fundamental issues of modern information systems. It discusses query processing, data quality, data mining, knowledge management, mobile computing, software engineering for information systems construction, and other topics. The book presents research results that are not available elsewhere. With more than 40 contributors, it is a solid source of information about the state of the art in the field of databases and information systems. It is intended for researchers, advanced students, and practitioners who are concerned with the development of advanced information systems.
