Schema Matching Model of Build-Operate-Transfer Projects

This paper formulates a schema matching model to analyze the model selection problem arising from pattern recognize and schema matching between infrastructures and different type build-operate-transfer (BOT) project. Through systematical review, an analysis of relevant literature and cases analysis yielded significant factors that would have a certain impact on the feasibility of any BOT project. These factors were classified into three relative categories forming the structure of the suggested project schema matching model. This model presents a new approach to evaluate the relationships between decisions factors related to a project financing model. The proposed approach to project feasibility evaluation aims to increase the decision maker's ability to determine the factors which make the greatest contribution to the financing model to the BOT project at hand.
