Chimera: a virtual data system for representing, querying, and automating data derivation
TL;DR: The Chimera virtual data system is developed, which combines avirtual data catalog for representing data derivation procedures and derived data, with a virtual data language interpreter that translates user requests into data definition and query operations on the database.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A community authorization service for group collaboration
