XBenchMatch

XBenchMatch is a benchmark for evaluating schema matching tools. A demo is available here. Follow the instructions to run it:

• Download the demo for unix or windows (some external libraries differ) and unzip it. Inside the directory where you unzipped the archive, you should find a jar archive called XBenchMatch.jar, two scripts (sh and bat, respectively for *nix and Windows), some directories required by the application (default, org.eclipse.swt and defaultbenchmark) and two directories containing some examples (matchers_input and some_schemas).
• To start XBenchMatch, you can either launch the script related to your OS, or enter in a command line shell: java -jar XBenchMatch.jar
• The GUI is then displayed. From there, you can choose to run the default benchmark in the menu bar: the application requests the schemas generated by a matching tool for the default scenarii (these scenarii can be found in the defaultbenchmark directory). Then some graphs show the quality obtained by this matching tools on the scenarii.
• Other options have been currently disabled to improve them. However, if you really want to run them, the source code is available in the jar archive, so you just need to edit GUI.java, compile it again and place the generated GUI.class in the jar archive.
