This paper describes an algorithm for integrating heterogeneous data in a slow internet connection. The focus is on the problems of higher volume of data stored in heterogeneous relational databases with uncertain schema. The web service application for implementation was developed using Visual Basic.NET. The validation and test cases uses demographical surveillance data sets as well as baseline census data for sample vital registration with verbal autopsy. The result indicates that the proposed algorithm is capable of transferring data across the internet with higher disconnection. The authors acknowledge that some parts of this paper appear in PACT 2014.

It is concluded that despite practical challenges in data integration; integrating big data sets in a low bandwidth environment requires mapping rules that deploy mechanism of mapping from heterogeneous data to homogenous data and vice versa. The proposed architecture can be useful to provide scientists with timely data for modeling. The model also unifies and provides a broader population of data set and wide set of health indicators to epidemiologists than it used to be in a traditional approach of requesting and integrating pieces of data using CD-ROM. It is anticipated that the design architecture provides a novel web service infrastructure implementation of distributed data, and evaluating the web service paradigm in a low bandwidth environment. The algorithm applied can cut off the transfer and execution time to (2On) and hence it is cost effective in terms of time. It is therefore, capable of transferring data in a network with higher disconnection. It is also noted that, despite of practical challenges in data integration, the process of integrating health data sets in a low bandwidth environment require a mapping rules that deploy mechanism of mapping from heterogeneous to homogenous and localizing the execution operation. It is also concluded that, the use of IT in healthcare will always be one of the key factor in healthcare practice and will always transform the way practitioners, patients, and consumers interact to improve the health status of the patients.
