Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0140973A2] Methods and a system that provide a network of data sources in terms of a traditional database schema, convert traditional database queries into network messages, and route those messages to those data sources which have relevant data. In the present invention, the network interface of the data source accepts the message, filters the data source's output according to the instructions in the message, and then sends reply messages to the originator of the query. The system then collects these reply messages at the query originator and produces query results as a traditional database result.
