The topic this quarter is Meta Data Management. By meta data, I mean
structural information about engineered artifacts, such as database
schemas, interface definitions, web site maps, and module
dependencies. By Meta Data Management, I mean generic database
technology that enables the construction of applications that need to
build and interpret that structural information and mappings between
them.
I’ll give an introductory lecture on the architecture of meta data
management systems and applications, and their relationship to the
model management project that some of us are pursuing
(http://research.microsoft.com/db/ModelMgt/). After that, we’ll read
a paper per week that we’ll discuss in class. Topics include data
translation, schema integration, comparative evaluation of data models,
frame-based models, theory of information-preserving transformations,
and logic-based meta data management. I’ll distribute a list of papers
on the first day of class.
