- Is a “smart” data discovery and integration system. It uses a knowledge-based query system which allows integration of disparatedata resources. It can determine whether relevant data and analytical components may be automatically transformed for use with a selected analytic workflow. This process of query and integration is made possible through controlled semantic vocabulary and the creation of ecological ontologies.
+ Is a “smart” data discovery and integration system which uses a knowledge-based query system to allow integration of disparatedata resources. Through semantic mediation the system can determine whether relevant data and analytical components may be automatically transformed for use with a selected analytic workflow. This process of query and integration is made possible bye extending XML-based data integration and mediation technology through controlled semantic vocabulary and the creation of ecological ontologies.
