چکیده
Ontologies as means for conceptualizing and structuring domain knowledge within a community of interest are seen as a key to realize the Semantic Web vision. However, the decentralized nature of the Web makes achieving this consensus across communities difficult, thus, hampering efficient knowledge sharing between them. In order to balance the autonomy of each community with the need for interoperability, mapping mechanisms between distributed ontologies in the Semantic Web are required. In this paper we present MAFRA, an interactive, incremental and dynamic framework for mapping distributed ontolo-

متن کاملService-oriented Ontology Mapping System
Ontology mapping is the process whereby two ontologies are semantically related at conceptual level and the source ontology instances are transformed into target ontology entities according to those semantic relations. The objective of MAFRA–MApping FRAmework – is to cover all the phases of the ontology mapping process, including analysis, specification, representation, execution and evolution....
متن کاملSemantic Web Complex Ontology Mapping
Ontology mapping is the process whereby two ontologies are semantically related at conceptual level and the source ontology instances are transformed into target ontology entities according to those semantic relations. Ontology mapping faces new challenges in the context of Semantic Web, especially concerning heterogeneity, dynamics, distribution and limitations on representation technology. Th...

متن کاملE-Business Interoperability Through Ontology Semantic Mapping
With the advent of Semantic Web, knowledge-based interoperability in VE faces a new technological shift, in which ontologies and semantic web technologies plays a major role. Exploiting the explicit semantic description of the domain of discourse allows reasoning and automatically acquiring semantic relations between two different domains of discourses. Such semantic relations would be further ...
