Fall Seminar on Data and Knowledge Integration: This Week



 
 The fifth talk of the seminar series
 will be this Friday. 

  Date: 10/04/02 (Friday)
  Time: 11:00 -- 12:15 PM
  Place: GWC 487
 
 
 Speaker: Chitta Baral
  
 I will present the recent paper 

  John Grant Jack Minker, 
  A Logic-Based Approach to Data Integration, 
  Theory and Practice of Logic Programming, Vol 2(3), May 2002, 293-321. 

 It can be found in http://prism.cs.umd.edu/people/minker.html.
 
 In this paper Minker and Grant consider a golbal schema, and 
 assume that various sites (say in the web) 
 give us only ceratin views of the schema.
 Given that, they discuss how to transform a query so that it can be
 answered using those views. Their method is based on
 Clark's completion. So first I will discuss Clark's completion
 of queries and then proceed from there.
