Proposed is a method and technology for implementing core functions of Database Translator (DATALATOR) for Integrated Exploitation in dynamic context of the urban warfighter. The focus is on providing tangible means for data users to be directly involved in meeting their operational objectives. The proposed innovative method of information integration automates dicovery of semantic model that best represents the intended use of data in the data source. This is achieved by presenting a user with hypotetical process reflected in the flow of data. Each hypothesis is based on a possible chain of events. The offeror presents a prof-of-concept (TRL 3) implementation and preliminary empirical resuts in support of the proposed method. This followed by suggested conceptual architecture for DATALATOR and a desing of experimental prototype (TRL 4) to be built during Phase I from publically available components. Finnnaly, a detailed set of experiments is proposed for rigorous quantitative evaluation of the prototype during Phase I base on data and benchamarks obtained from a recent study of analogous experimental prototype in major US university, as well as more comprehensive empirical evaluation designed and conducted jointly with major Canadian university.
