In this paper, we present the Nexus approach to efficient
domain-specific integration of many loosely coupled data sources. A
so called information maximizing mediation middleware (IMMM) has to
cope with large data volumes and many queries, and at the same time
achieve a tight semantic integration for the data instances. For
efficiency and practicability reasons, we propose to use an
extensible global schema and a limited domain-specific query
language. This facilitates employing domain-specific semantic
knowledge in the middleware: detect duplicates, merge multiple
representations, aggregate and generalize information. Finally, we
present a working prototype tailored to the domain of context-aware
applications.
