Panel: Is Generic Metadata Management Feasible?
Summary: Argues for a generic metadata-management layer unifying translation, migration, and schema evolution under a single model notion. Proposes a generic expression language and model-manipulation primitives (union, match, diff, merge, invert, compose) and treats SQL/ER/XML/OO/web schemas as specializations, outlining research directions.
