Abstract:
The overwhelming amount of information sources now available through the internet has increased the need to combine or integrate the data retrieved from these sources in an intelligent and efficient manner. A desirable approach for information integration would be to have a single interface, like the SIMS information broker [1], which allows access to multiple information sources. An example application is to retrieve all the menus of restaurants from Joe’s Favorite Restaurants site which have been rated highly by the Department of Health.
