Ashok: How is survey different from our wiki?

Juan: specific to direct mapping
... Hopefully ready by end of Auguist

<Ashok> Completeness --> does it cover all pk/fk combinations

<Ashok> Userinput -> naming relationships, inheritance

user has someinput to the "generate" operation on slide 8

This approach is the same as RDB2Onto

Concern raised that this does not generate a "quality" ontology

Juan agrees, problem shifted to the creation of a higher-level domain ontology

Ashok: What is the status of this work?

Juan: Will create generator of direct mapping.
... Access to database via the mapping has not yet been done.
... Transformation rules written in first order logic

<jsequeda> http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~jsequeda/pub/sql2sw.pdf

Juan will send us a link with these rules

<Ashok> The link is above

Juan will update our wiki pages
