Abstract

One of the most complex issues of the integration and transformation interface is the case where there are multiple sources for a single data element in the enterprise Data Warehouse (DW). There are many facets due to the number of variables that are needed in the integration phase. However we are interested in the temporal integration problem. This paper presents our DW architecture for temporal integration on the basis of the temporal properties of the data and temporal characteristics of the data sources. The proposal shows the steps for the transformation of the native schemes of the data sources into the DW scheme. In addition we present two new components for temporal integration: Temporal Integration Processor and Refreshment Metadata Generator, which will be used for integrating temporal properties of data and generating the necessary data for the later refreshment of the DW.
