摘要
提出了在企业应用集成EAI(Enterprise Application Integration)中基于本体的异构数据集成中间件,通过使用本体描述语言(OWL)对数据源进行建模,提高了系统集成的灵活性,隔离了数据源模式的变化,使得局部数据源模式的变化不会影响到整个集成系统。此外,通过引入本体来描述数据模式,为解决集成中的语义异构问题提供了支持,解决了数据源异构性问题,以实现灵活的数据源集成能力。
The paper presents an ontology-based heterogeneous data integration middleware in Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). By using Web Ontology Language (OWL) to model data sources, it can improve the flexibility of system integration, and segregate the varia- tion of data sources schema to make sure that the changes from local data sources schema would not affect the whole integrated system. Moreover, through importing ontology in data schema descriptions, it can provide strong supports to solve the semantic heterogeneous problems appeared during the integration process and to handle the issues of heterogeneity between data sources so as to achieve the adaptable integration of data sources.
