ABSTRACT:
A system and method for integrating databases and/or web services into a searchable ontological structure. The structure allows for free-form searching of the combined system and for the discovery of an execution path through the ontology. The discovered execution path (or paths) provides for the generation of code that integrate databases and services for the purpose of fusing information from disparate databases and Web services.
