ComputerMediators in the architecture of future information systems
2,154 Citations1992Gio Wiederhold
It is shown that mediation simplifies, abstracts, reduces, merging, merges, and explains data.
ACM Transactions on Database SystemsA foundation for representing and querying moving objects
756 Citations2000Ralf Hartmut Güting, Michael H. Böhlen +5 more
The paper formally defines the types and operations, offers detailed insight into the considerations that went into the design, and exemplifies the use of the abstract data types using SQL.
International Journal of Geographical Information SystemsOn spatial database integration
216 Citations1998Thomas Devogèle, Christine Parent +1 more
A general format is proposed for precisely defining correspondences between objects of two databases and a solution is presented for aggregation conflicts which arise when one object of one database corresponds to a set of objects in the other database.
Spatio-temporal conceptual models
198 Citations1999Christine Parent, Stefano Spaccapietra +1 more
This paper proposes a spatio-temporal modeling approach at the conceptual level, called MADS, which focuses on highlighting similarities in the modeling of space and time, which enhance readability and understandability of the model.

The MIT Press eBooksDatabase Integration: The Key to Data Interoperability
67 Citations2000Christine Parent, Stefano Spaccapietra
This chapter provides a global picture of the issues raised and the approaches that have been proposed to tackle the problem of database integration.
Modelling and Manipulating Multiple Representations of Spatial Data
39 Citations2002Christelle Vangenot, Christine Parent +1 more
This paper proposes a conceptual data model providing full support for multiple representations of the same real world data and focuses on consequences of multiple coexisting representations on data manipulation.
Lecture notes in computer scienceDesign and Implementation of Multi-scale Databases
23 Citations2001Sheng Zhou, Christopher B. Jones
A design for multi-scale spatial objects in which both spatial objects and the vertices of their component geometry are labelled with scale priority values is presented, and alternative approaches to database implementation are considered in which vertices are organised into scale-bounded layers.
Repository for Publications and Research Data (ETH Zurich)A multi-scale DAG for cartographic objects
22 Citations1995Sabine Timpf, Andrew U. Frank
This work proposes a multi-scale hierarchical structure where renderings of spatial objects with increasing detail are stored: a directed acyclic graph (DAG), used to compose a topographic map at a particular scale.
Lecture notes in computer scienceOn the representation of objects with polymorphic shape and behavior
11 Citations1994M. Papazoglou, Bernd Krämer +1 more
The concept of roles is presented as an extension to object-oriented database models in which identifiable groups of objects are allowed to evolve by assuming transient behavior, while preserving their identity.
A Methodology for Updating Geographic Databases using Map Versions
11 Citations2002Ally Peerbocus, Geneviève Jomier +1 more
This paper provides a methodological framework for the updating of geographic databases that relies on a multi-version GIS, allowing an automatic detection of conflicting updates between two map versions.
International Journal of Geographical Information SystemsGeographical multi-representation: striving for the hyphenation
7 Citations2004Jean‐François Hangouët
This article is an attempt to answer questions methodically about geographical multi-representation, following a phenomenological approach, and a possible strategy is revealed as an example of methodological progression.
