== About the book ==

Data exchange, integration, and streams concern three different, yet
inter-related facets of information integration that have been investigated in
depth in the recent years. Data exchange and integration deal with the execution
of information integration, but they adopt distinctly different approaches. Data
exchange is the problem of transforming data residing in different sources into
data structured under a target schema; in particular, it entails the
materialization of data, after the data have been extracted from the sources and
re-structured into the unified format. In contrast, data integration can be
described as symbolic or virtual integration: users are provided with the
capability to pose queries and obtain answers via the unified format interface,
while the data remain in the sources and no materialization of the restructured
data is required.In the basic data stream model, the input data consists of one
or several streams of data items that can be read sequentially. This scenario is
relevant for a large number of applications where massive amounts of data need
to be processed. Typically, algorithms have to work with one or a few passes
over the data and a memory buffer of size significantly smaller than the input size.

This volume is based on GI-Dagstuhl Seminar 10452 on "Data Exchange,
Integration, and Streams" (DEIS'10) held in November 2010 at Schloss Dagstuhl –
Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik, Germany; see http://www.dagstuhl.de/10452.
