Databases Integration Metabase Distributed Information System Inorganic Substances and Materials EII EAI
Institute of Information Theories and Applications FOI ITHEA
The methods and software for integration of databases (DBs) on inorganic material and substance
properties have been developed. The information systems integration is based on known approaches
combination: EII (Enterprise Information Integration) and EAI (Enterprise Application Integration). The metabase -
special database that stores data on integrated DBs contents is an integrated system kernel. Proposed methods
have been applied for DBs integrated system creation in the field of inorganic chemistry and materials science.
Important developed integrated system feature is ability to include DBs that have been created by means of
different DBMS using essentially various computer platforms: Sun (DB "Diagram") and Intel (other DBs) and
diverse operating systems: Sun Solaris (DB "Diagram") and Microsoft Windows Server (other DBs).
