A Survey of the State of Dataspaces

Abstract

Published in International Journal of Computer and Information Technology.This paper presents a survey of the state of dataspaces. With dataspaces becoming the modern technique of systems integration, the achievement of complete dataspace development is a critical issue. This has led to the design and implementation of dataspace systems using various approaches. Dataspaces are data integration approaches that target for data coexistence in the spatial domain. Unlike traditional data integration techniques, they do not require up front semantic integration of data. In this paper, we outline and compare the properties and implementations of dataspaces including the approaches of optimizing dataspace development. We finally present actual dataspace development recommendations to provide a global overview of this significant research topic.This paper presents a survey of the state of dataspaces .
