Abstract
A computer implemented system and method that combines data from multiple sources to provide a unified view of data using multi-layered conceptual modeling framework. The invention provides means to model conceptual data models at multiple levels of abstraction and a means to map them with each other and with physical models. A query rewriting approach adopted in the present invention is capable of translating queries down multiple levels of conceptual models into physical models and Conceptual modeling framework provide a means to capture and process semantic intent of data more accurately thereby reducing data integration errors significantly.
