This lecture presents advanced concepts in data modeling. In particular, we will discuss formal methods for the representation and management of data models. In addition, methods for data integration, which are based on these formalizations, will be discussed. The tutorials will present practical examples for the presented concepts.
The lecture follows up on the topics of the lecture "Databases and Information Systems" in which basic methods for data models (e.g. relational model, entity-relationship model, UML, XML Schema) have been discussed. Knowledge about these topics is therefore a prerequisite for this course. Furthermore, knowledge about logic and knowledge representation is helpful. Topics:
- Semi structured data models (e.g. XML)
- Object oriented data models (e.g. UML) and object relational models
- Semantic data models and ontologies (e.g. OWL)
- Mappings between data models
- Data integration
- Model Management
- Schema Evolution
