Abstract: Schema mapping is applied in many important areas like database integration in recent years. With schema mapper, a semi-automatic tool is demonstrated for schema integration that combines a novel visual interface with an algorithm-based recommendation engine to cope with such a challenging problem. Formative evaluation and user’s study suggest that schema mapper may be usefully employed for performing schema mapping based on XML efficiently and quickly.

Key words: integration, visualization, recommendation engine

摘要： 近年来，信息架构的匹配显示了在诸如数据库集成等领域的重大应用。针对这一具有挑战性的问题，提出一个可视化匹配的模型，并开发一个半自动的集成工具。此模型主要用于基于XML的信息系统中的数据集成。该模型把一个新颖的可视化界面和以算法为基础的推荐引擎结合在一起。经过用户的实际操作和使用，证明该模型对于基于XML的信息系统中的数据集成既简单又快速。
