A Peer to Peer (P2P) Research Project
 Database and AI researchers intermittently connect to
exchange research ideas … about P2P DBs

Is There a Role for P2P DBs ?
 Peers come and go, but must still be able to interoperate.
 To us, the big question is how to cope with DBs that
 are incomplete, overlapping, and mutually inconsistent
 dynamically appear and disappear
 have limited connectivity.
 Scenario
 Databases of medical patients
 Complete integration is likely to be infeasible
 But dynamic integration of DBs relevant to one patient
could have high value.

A Model for P2P Databases
 Each peer is a node with a database. It exchanges data
and services with acquaintances (i.e. other peers).
 The set of acquaintances changes often, due to
 site availability
 changing usage patterns
 Peers are fully autonomous.
 No global control or central server.
 Hence no global schema
 It would be impractical to build one for each peer
 And it might be impossible because of inconsistencies

A Motivating Scenario
 A patient may be described
in several DBs, which use
different patient id formats,
disease descriptions, etc.
 When a patient is admitted
to the hospital, H becomes
acquainted with D
D: Doctor
P: Pharmacist
H: Hospital
 The acquaintance is dropped
when treatment is over
 When the doctor prescribes a
drug, D becomes acquainted
with P
 A patient is injured skiing, so
more DBs get involved

Proposal: Local Relational Model (LRM)
 A logic for P2P data integration
 Instead of a global schema, each peer has
 coordination formulas – each specifies semantic
interdependencies between two acquaintances
 binary domain relations – each specifies how
symbols in one database translate to symbols
in an acquaintance’s database.
 Each expression in a coordination formula is relative
to just one participating database
 Use coordination formulas and domain relations for
query and update processing.

A Coordination Formula
 p: pharmacist DB
medication(PrescriptionID, Pid, Prod)
 d: doctor DB
treatment(Tid, Pid, Description, Type)
where type  {“hospital”, “home”}.
 (i:x).A(x) means
for all v in the domain of database i, A(v) is true.
 A coordination formula
(p:y).(p:z).(p: (x).medication(x, y, z)
 d: (w).treatment(w, y, z, “home”) )
“There’s a row in treatment in the doctor DB
for each row in medication in the pharmacist DB”

Domain Relation
 A row <d1,d2> in domain relation rik specifies that
value d1 in DBi corresponds to value d2 in DBk
 rik may be partial
 rik,rki need not be symmetric
 Example - DBi contains lengths in meters and
DBk in kilometers (total but not symmetric)
 rik(x) = roundToClosestK(x)
rik(653)=1, rik(453)=0
 rki(x) = x*1000
rki(1)=1000

Queries
 A query is a coordination formula of the form
A(x)  i: q(x), where
 A(x) is a coordination formula
 x has n variables
 i is the database against which the query is posed
 q is a new n-ary predicate symbol
 A relational space is a pair <db,r> where db is a set of
DBs and r associates an rik with each pair of DBs
 <db,r> ⊨ f A relational space <db,r> satisfies a
coordination formula f
 The answer to a query:
n
{ddomi | <db,r> ⊨ ((i:x).A(x)  i:x=d)}

Interpreting a Query
 A query
((i:P(x)  j:R(y))  k:S(x,y) )  h: q(x,y)
 Evaluate P,R,S in i,j,k (respectively)
 Map these results via rih,rjh,rkh to sets si,sj,sk
 And then compute ((si  sj)  sk)

View-Based Data Integration
 The standard model for data integration is based on
 Global as view
 Local as view
 How does this relate to LRM?
 Could use LRM to express view definitions
 Either map “standard” view defns to LRM, or
 Specify a restricted LRM for view definitions
 Could customize LAV/GAV query interpretation for such LRM
views and queries
 This is work in progress.

Implementation Architecture
 A classic multi-database system, with
 A protocol for adding/dropping acquaintances
 LRM query processing (domain mapping logic) that can
cope with chains of acquaintances
 Dynamic approach to materialized view creation
 Tools to help a user establish an acquaintance (e.g. yellow
pages, defining domain relations & coord formulas, ...)

Theoretical Results
 Provide inference rules for coordination formulas
 Prove that the rules are sound and complete.
 Define a generalized relational theory as a theory with
domain closure, distinct domain values, and a finite number
of possible relation extensions (CWA).
 Define relational multi-context system <T,R> as a family
of relational languages (one per database) with a
generalized relational theory (in T) and a set of
coordination formulas (in R) for each one.
 Prove that for any relational multi-context system, there’s a
unique maximal relational space that satisfies it.
(Generalizes Reiter’s result on CWA.)
 Other results on recursive queries and query evaluation.
