Dynamic database integration for knowledge sharing

组织正在淹没在数据中。基本问题是，我们如何管理所有这些数据，并将其转化为有价值的信息？数据分散在不同的系统中，采用不同的格式，并由不同的组织控制。这就像一个巨大的拼图游戏。为了回答问题，你需要来自不同地方的碎片，只有把碎片放在一起，才能产生有意义的结果。将数据转化为信息的关键是工具，这些工具允许您从各个部分构建整个图景。该提案旨在开发算法和相关工具，以帮助所有用户查找、查询和集成来自多个数据源的数据。这些方法适用于医疗信息、业务数据的整合，以及海量科学数据的传播和整合。

Organizations are drowning in data. The basic question is how can we manage all this data and turn it into valuable information? Data is scattered around different systems, in different formats, and controlled by various organizations. It is like a giant jigsaw puzzle. In order to answer questions, you need pieces from various places, and only when the pieces are put together can meaningful results be produced. The key to turning data into information are the tools that allow you to construct the whole picture from the individual pieces. This proposal aims to develop the algorithms and associated tools to help all users find, query, and integrate data from many data sources. The approaches are applicable to the integration of medical information, business data, and the dissemination and integration of the vast amounts of scientific data.
