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.

Context interchange: representing and reasoning about data semantics in heterogeneous systems

TL;DR: This paper presents a formal characterization and reconstruction of this strategy in a COIN framework, based on a deductive object-oriented data model and language called COIN, and shows that this presents a well-founded basis for reasoning about semantic disparities in heterogeneous systems.
