abstract = {In this paper, we address aspects of the challenge facing the Data Integration
solutions in the problem of increasing the scalability. We first overview our
results in data integration and present our prototype. Searching for a
motivation to employ the agent-based technology and envision how this
technology can be applied to improve the system scalability represent the next
step of our research. For that, we examine some formal definitions and metrics
of scalability which fit the purpose of system description. The analysis of our
data integration solution, a change propagation system called Champagne,
identifies the system components having the most influence on the scalability
problem. We propose to employ the agent-based technology to improve the
scalability and perform some experiments which reveal our work.},

abstract = {We propose a family of algorithms for processing nearest neighbor (NN) queries
in an integration middleware that provides federated access to numerous loosely
coupled, autonomous data sources connected through the internet. Previous
approaches for parallel and distributed NN queries considered all data sources
as relevant, or determined the relevant ones in a single step by exploiting
additional knowledge on object counts per data source. We propose a different
approach that does not require such detailed statistics about the distribution
of the data. It iteratively enlarges and shrinks the set of relevant data
sources. Our experiments show that this yields considerable performance
benefits with regard to both response time and effort. Additionally, we propose
to use only moderate parallelism instead of querying all relevant data sources
at the same time. This allows us to trade a slightly increased response time
for a lot less effort, hence maximizing the cost profit ratio, as we show in
our experiments. Thus, the proposed algorithms clearly extend the set of NN
algorithms known so far.},

das auf den Modellierungsm{\"o}glichkeiten verschiedener publizierter Modelle
aufbaut, vorgestellt und bewertet. F{\"u}r das logische Schema eines Data Warehouse
wird h{\"a}ufig ein sogenanntes Star-Schema oder ein Snowflake-Schema erstellt. F{\"u}r
diese und weitere Schematypen wird analysiert, welchen Einflu{\ss} die Wahl des
logischen Schemas auf Anwendungen aus den Bereichen OLAP und Data Mining hat.
Wichtige Kriterien sind hier unter anderem der Informationsgehalt und die
Performanz. Insgesamt zeigt dieser Beitrag, dass das COCOM-Modell und das
Star-Schema eine gute Grundlage f{\"u}r den integrierten Einsatz von OLAP und
Data-Mining bilden.},

abstract = {Maschinen- und Anlagenhersteller haben das Ziel, die Standardisierung und den
Wiederholgrad im Engineering und der Produktion zu erh{\"o}hen. Dazu ist es
erforderlich, disziplin{\"u}bergreifend Baukastensysteme abzustimmen und zu
entwickeln. M{\"o}glich wird dies durch ein Projektierungswerkzeug, das
{\"u}bergeordnete Aufgaben des baukastenbasierten Engineerings zentral und
durchg{\"a}ngig unterst{\"u}tzt, es gleichzeitig aber auch erm{\"o}glicht, die Spezifika
und St{\"a}rken vorhandener Werkzeuge weiterhin zu nutzen.
Das F{\"o}deral-Projekt machte sich zum Ziel, den Maschinen- und Anlagenbauern ein
solches Projektierungswerkzeug zur Verf{\"u}gung zu stellen.
Das vorliegende Dokument soll die Ergebnisse des F{\"o}deral-Projekts weiteren
Firmen als Leitfaden f{\"u}r den Aufbau eigener Baukastensystematiken und
Baukastensysteme dienen. Dazu enth{\"a}lt er folgende Themenschwerpunkte:
- Darstellung der Grundlagen (F{\"o}deral-Methode, F{\"o}derale
Informations-Architektur etc.)
- Anwendung von Methode und Werkzeug am Beispiel einer Demonstrationsfr{\"a}sanlage
- Anwendung von Methode und Werkzeug bei den Firmen Homag und Nagel
- Erfahrungen der F{\"o}deral-Partner},
