Zusammenfassung:SIMS provides intelligent access to heterogeneous, distributed information sources, while insulating human users and application programs from the need to be aware of the location of the sources, their query languages, organization, size, etc. This manual explains how to bring up a SIMS information server in a new domain. After providing a short overview of relevant features of the SIMS system, it describes the modeling and programming work that has to be performed to support the application of SIMS to a given collection of information sources in the domain. To aid the user inexperienced with the technological infrastructure underlying SIMS, the manual contains examples structured as a tutorial that can be followed to actually produce a working SIMS system.
