Integration of Object Behavior in Federated Information Systems
- Project duration
- January 2002 - January 2004

- Project number
- ARC-DP0210654
- Short description
- The integration of autonomous object-oriented systems requires the integration of object structure and object behavior. Research in federated database Systems has so far mainly addressed integration of object structure. This project will investigate the integration of object behavior, especially object life cycles. A major application area is the integration of business processes, which is typically required when companies merge or enter into consumer-producer relationships. Consistency criteria for behavior integration will be defined and applied in a graphical integration tool that guides the definition of global behavioral views upon autonomous object-oriented systems.
