Template-Based Wrappers in the TSIMMIS System
Summary: TSIMMIS: template-based wrappers map app queries to native source queries and normalize results. It offers a library of wrapper primitives, a declarative template language, and a post-processing engine for complex predicates to extend sources. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
