CARAVEL has been dissolved on 12/31/2002
Project-Team Presentation
The Caravel project deals with the general problem of information integration in networks of autonomous, heterogeneous information sources. Information sources include data sources and program sources and may be replicated. Data sources may be structured or semi-structured.
Research themes
In this context, Caravel's objectives are:
- to provide uniform access to information sources through an integrated view,
- to ease the management of consistent data warehouses,
- and to offer various information browsing modes adapted to various kinds of users. One major application domain of the Caravel project is environmental information systems.
