Handling Heterogeneity

One of the crucial thematic emphases gaining importance as a result of the changed forms of communication is the systematic handling of the problem of adequate, intelligent retrieval in syntactically and semantically heterogeneous data pools. GESIS-IZ is involved in the following projects which deal with aspects of themes such as:

• CARMEN AP11: Transfer components for handling heterogeneity of text files
• CARMEN AP12: Cross concordances of classifications and thesauri
• ELVIRA: Electronic Retrieval and Analysis System for Industry Associations
• ETB: European Schools Treasury Browser
• ViBSoz: Social Science Virtual Library
• Competence Center Modeling and Treatment of Semantic Heterogeneity
