Composing adaptable-resources for answering complex queries in distributed systems
Pages 434 - 437
Abstract
The Internet and grid technologies development was accompanied by an exponential proliferation of the resources to which a customer (user, program, community) may have access to. These resources (data sources, software components, Web services, physical devices, etc) are often offered in an adaptable/negotiable manner, i.e., under different configurations (variants), in order to satisfy different customers' needs. They are in that case called adaptable-resources. We present in this article some mechanisms that allow the composition of resources' variants, in order to answer complex queries, that generally require a combination of several adaptable-resources.

Recommendations
Answering queries with useful bindings
In information-integration systems, sources may have diverse and limited query capabilities. To obtain maximum information from these restrictive sources to answer a query, one can access sources that are not specified in the query (i.e., off-query ...
