Abstract
Merging and coalescing data from multiple and diverse sources into different data formats continues to be an important problem in modern information systems. Schema matching (the process of matching elements of a source schema with elements of a target schema) and schema mapping (the process of creating a query that maps between two disparate schemas) are at the heart of data integration systems. We demonstrate Clio, a semi-automatic schema mapping tool developed at the IBM Almaden Research Center. In this paper, we showcase Clio's mapping engine which allows mapping to and from relational and XML schemas, and takes advantage of data constraints in order to preserve data associations.
