Description
Databases, modern communication technology, and emerging
infrastructures (such as WWW, Semantic Web, Grid, and P2P) are the
driving force behind our increasingly interconnected information
society. Underpinning the
infrastructures is massive and heterogeneous data sets, ranging from
classical relational databases to marked up, unstructured or
metadata-rich text. The
availability and utility of these data sets necessitates the engineering
and maintenance of powerful and intelligent interoperability mechanisms
for facilitating large-scale transparent access.
In recognition of problems arising from the diversity of emerging
infrastructures as well as data itself, the 2nd edition of InterDB will focus on issues particularly related to
semantic interoperability in databases underpinning large-scale data
sharing. Semantic interoperability
encompasses many diverse and difficult issues, such as reconciling
disagreements among databases on structure, representation, or
interpretation of data; differences in universes of discourse,
perceptions, attitudes, and/or goals; and different (or even
incompatible) data models, data types, database schemas or terminologies.
The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from
academia and industry who are actively engaged
both in theoretical and practical aspects of semantic
interoperability. Contributions to
the workshop ideally report on specific languages, tools, models, and/or
methodologies for semantic interoperability, relating the work to
practical applications wherever possible. Submissions identifying new
issues and focused directions for future work in the area are welcome.
Topics
ICDE 2006 lists as one of the main areas “Data Integration,
Interoperability, and Metadata.”
InterDB articulates well with this area,
and the focus on semantic interoperability is a key emerging aspect. In
particular, topics for InterDB 2006 include,
but are not limited to, the following:
·
Languages, tools, models, and methodologies for semantic
interoperability,
·
Security, anonymity and privacy in large-scale integration,
·
Facilitating large-scale data sharing and mass collaboration,
·
Ontology-based integration,
·
Interoperability in Semantic Web / Grid / P2P infrastructures,
·
Model mapping and metadata management,
·
Semantic integration and interoperability of Deep and/or Surface
Web sources,
·
Maintenance of integrated data,
·
Reuse, sharing, and maintenance of mappings/wrappers for integration,
·
Agent-oriented architectures for database interoperability,
·
Domain specific interoperability issues in advanced applications
(spatial databases, medical
databases, biological databases, etc.), and
·
Personalized approaches to integration of heterogeneous data.
