Abstract

The issue of database schemas comparison and integration has been discussed in this paper. The research was connected with problems of database schemas integration that are maintained by various database management systems. This operation is often realized in programmers’ group work as well as in database administrators’ duties. Automation of this process will allow the avoidance of many mistakes and will increase efficiency of work. Fulfillment of these requirements entails transformation of mechanisms supported by one database management system to mechanisms existing in the other. To make this transformation possible and easy the universal object model was proposed in the research. This model contains database schemas read from given database management systems. Thanks to this, information can be compared without taking its derivation into consideration.
