Status Report 12 July 2004

Difference between version 3 and version 2:

At line 101 added 19 lines.
+ !! Jenny Wang
+ Completed Tasks/ Bugs Fixed:
+ * Correctly handle union types of matches from the GUI of our schema matching tool.
+ * Partially implemented the abstract schema interface and devoloped a translator that imports DTDs into the schema matching tool as Abstract Schemas. But the "OR" case in DTDs is not handled in an appropriate way yet. Also it may require changes to the abstract schema interface when going further on the design and implementation of schema morphisms.
+
+ Current Work and Bugs:
+ * Work on 2 paper drafts
+ * Fix more bugs of the tool:
+ ** Modify the GUI to include an arrow panel for indicating where it is
+ working on,
+ ** correctly handle union types of matches identified during matching
+ process,
+ **consistently highlight where user attention is needed
+ * Implement abstract schemas and abstract schema morphisms to make the tool more general: develope another translator for importing XML Schemas into the tool as Abstract Schemas, and design a schema morphism interface.
+
+ Significant Issues:
+ * The implementation of abstract schemas and schema morphisms will help the tool handle constraints to some extent.
