Abstract
A federated database system (FDBS) is a collection of cooperating database systems that are autonomous and possibly heterogeneous. In this paper, we define a reference architecture for distributed database management systems from system and schema viewpoints and show how various FDBS architectures can be developed. We then define a methodology for developing one of the popular architectures of an FDBS. Finally, we discuss critical issues related to developing and operating an FDBS.

Architecture of a mediator for a bioinformatics database federation

TL;DR: This work is building a mediator based on the functional data model database, P/FDM, which integrates access to heterogeneous distributed biological databases, and has adopted a federated architecture with a five-level schema, arising from the use of the ANSI-SPARC three-level schemas.

Ontomet: ontology metadata framework

TL;DR: The main contributions of this thesis are the creation of an abstract model to representmetadata specifications, development of a methodology to extend metadata specifications, called Dynamic Community Profile, and formalization of semantic mappings to perform complex and contextual metadata crosswalks.

The entity-relationship model: toward a unified view of data

TL;DR: A data model, called the entity-relationship model, is proposed that incorporates some of the important semantic information about the real world and can be used as a basis for unification of different views of data: the network model, the relational model, and the entity set model.

A comparative analysis of methodologies for database schema integration

TL;DR: The aim of the paper is to provide first a unifying framework for the problem of schema integration, then a comparative review of the work done thus far in this area, providing a basis for identifying strengths and weaknesses of individual methodologies, as well as general guidelines for future improvements and extensions.
