It is possible to integrate information:

• even if it was not prepared to be integrated.
• even if information to integrate is complex.
• even if information to integrate is updated constantly.
• even if information is created and managed in remote places.
• even if the pieces it consists of have not been prepared to be integrated.
• even if there is more than one perspective on how to integrate.

Semantic integration can be designed and performed as an overlay.

The integrated view can be highly customized to optimize relevance and efficiently.

This domain is new, but there are already solutions available.
