The paper discusses various problems faced by data elements in the construction of digital economy, and deeply analyzes the important role played by artificial intelligence, blockchain and other technologies and their application schemes.
In the meta-universe, physical space and virtual space coexist and interact: physical space can be enhanced by all kinds of virtual information; Virtual Spaces can be constantly refreshed with real-time real world information. In order to enable users to seamlessly process and manipulate data and information between the physical and digital Spaces, new technologies should be developed to meet these needs, including intelligent interface technology, augmented reality technology, efficient data storage, management and dissemination technology. The paper first lists some promising applications and discusses the innovative functions that can be achieved with dual-space support, which cannot be achieved with single space. The paper then further discusses several emerging technologies for enabling metaverse construction, including artificial intelligence technology, blockchain technology, and immersive interaction technology. Then, with data as the center, the paper comprehensively discusses various challenges facing the meta-universe construction, including data fusion of heterogeneous data sources, data consistency, data privacy and security, data query processing and optimization, and data governance. Finally, from the perspective of database and system, this paper discusses and conceivates the direction that researchers in the field of data can build together. This achievement is also an important reflection of the active international academic exchange and cooperation of young teachers in the College of Optoelectronics.
