Abstract:
Description of the SYNTHESIS language intended for the specification, design and programming of the heterogeneous interoperable information resource environments is presented.

The SYNTHESIS is a multipurpose language that is intended for the following basic kinds of applications:

- forming of the unified (canonical) specifications and representations of the heterogeneous resources (multibases of data, knowledge and programs) having in mind their interoperable reuse for the application problem solving;

- development of the formalized descriptions of the application domains;

- conceptual design of the information systems;

- development of the information systems on the basis of pre-existing information resources;

- development of the techniques for semantic reconciliation and adaptation of the resources to form their necessary compositions supporting the problem solving.

The language has been developed in frame of the SYNTHESIS project that is focused on research and development of the heterogeneous interoperable information resource environments.
