Data sharing on the Web
Boualem Benatallah, Athman Bouguettaya · 2002
The Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) have elicited the explosion of accessible data repositories. Because high connectivity is now a reality, the challenge has been to take advantage of it to enable data sharing in a cost-effective way. Any proposed architecture would have to allow dynamic couplings of heterogeneous databases based on their content and interest. The authors propose an implementation using CORBA and Web technologies as a distributed infrastructure and platform to support the dynamic interconnection of heterogeneous and autonomous databases on the Web.
