Repositories of conceptual schemas have been proposed in literature to represent data managed in complex large scale information systems. In this paper we discuss concepts, constructs, methods and quality dimensions for repositories of conceptual schemas. In particular, the paper considers the two main state of the art paradigms to organize huge amounts of heterogeneous data: integration, to catch the resolution of heterogeneities among data, and abstraction, to enable representation of data at different levels of synthesis. Furthermore, in this paper we provide a formalization of all these issues, and investigate several quality dimensions of a repository.

Abstract
Repositories of conceptual schemas have been proposed in literature to represent data managed in complex large scale information systems. In this paper we discuss concepts, constructs, methods and quality dimensions for repositories of conceptual schemas. In particular, the paper considers the two main state of the art paradigms to organize huge amounts of heterogeneous data: integration, to catch the resolution of heterogeneities among data, and abstraction, to enable representation of data at different levels of synthesis. Furthermore, in this paper we provide a formalization of all these issues, and investigate several quality dimensions of a repository.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
