This demo presents the development of two
independent COntext INterchange (COIN) applications: Airfare Aggregator brings together data from many independent airfare aggregator websites such as Orbitz, Expedia, Itn (an American Express site), TravelSelect (a UK site), etc, so that they can be queried in a context blind fashion for the lowest fares across all of them. Car Renter brings together data from many independent US car rental aggregators such as Yahoo Car Rental, Qixo Car Rental, etc so that they can be queried in a context blind fashion for the lowest rates across all of them. The demo then presents motivation for merging COIN applications and demonstrates the capability of merging and the issues involved through the example of merging the Airfare and Car Renter applications.
