A Domain-Adaptable Heterogeneous Information Integration Platform: Tourism and Biomedicine Domains

In recent years, information integration systems have become very popular in mashup-type applications. Information sources are normally presented in an individual and unrelated fashion, and the development of new technologies to reduce the negative effects of information dispersion is needed. A majo...
