Microsoft English Query 7.5 Automatic Extraction of Semantics from Relational Databases and OLAP Cubes
Summary: Microsoft English Query 7.5 and the Model Wizard automatically extract semantic models from relational DBs and OLAP cubes to enable plain-English querying. Heuristic mapping of tables and OLAP objects yields 70% SQL and 85% OLAP coverage; XML Semantic Modeling Format and Author-by-Example enable sharing and iterative semantic refinement.
