Popis | Nowadays university is perceived as a complicatedly structured unit whose successful management cannot be imagined without a well-functioning, change-open information infrastructure. Resulting from long years of development, information infrastructure supporting the key areas of university life typically consists of several independently existing databases and, built on top of them, application systems. The integration of such structure into a cross-linked and consistent whole is the topic of this paper: university information infrastructure is described in a schematic way, and its so called central data layer is specified. Attention is directed to the principles and methods of data integration and redistribution in the central layer, based on the specification of reference data sources, formal description of data models and transformations (with respect to applicable standards), and definition of access rights for the reference sources. |
