Abstract
The integration of various data sources collected from the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) will become a valuable resource for the public, local government officials, scientists, natural resource managers, and educators. Due to the exclusive and distributive nature of these data, a new framework is developed to retrieve partial results from the underlying data sources to answer more user queries for the union operator. In addition, the user interface of mediators is considered when computing the query capabilities.
Research is supported in part by the National Science Foundation under grant CNS-0708596.
