Semantic Conflict Resolution in Heterogeneous Databases: Interaction Protocols for Domain Ontologies Evolution
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work deals with cooperation of heterogeneous Information Systems. The growth and variety of distributed information sources imply a need to exchange and/or to share information extracted from various and heterogeneous databases. Cooperation of heterogeneous information systems requires advanced architectures able to solve conflicts coming from data heterogeneity. The project ACSIS (Agents for Cooperation of Secure Information Systems) is a proposition to resolve semantic conflicts coming from databases heterogeneity taking care of scalability issues. Therefore, this solution uses Distributed Artificial Intelligence techniques like defined Interaction Protocols and scalable domain ontology. The cooperative architecture is currently implemented by using Java and the JADE platform (Java Agent DEvelopment framework).

Using Ontologies for Resolution of Semantic Heterogene- ity in GIS
Recently, problem of semantic conflicts in interoperable information systems or database integration has been under research. In this paper we try to clarify the problem and show how using ontologies can help in detecting and possibly resolving semantic conflicts. We also show how a formalism such as Description Logic can help in this domain.
متن کاملUnsupervised Conflict-Free Ontology Evolution Without Removing Axioms
In the beginning of the Semantic Web, ontologies were usually constructed once by a single knowledge engineer and then used as a static conceptualization of some domain. Nowadays, knowledge bases are increasingly dynamically evolving and incorporate new knowledge from different heterogeneous domains – some of which is even contributed by casual users (i.e., non-knowledge engineers) or even soft...
متن کاملDetecting Ontological Conflicts in Protocols between Semantic Web Services
The task of verifying the compatibility between interacting web services has traditionally been limited to checking the compatibility of the interaction protocol in terms of message sequences and the type of data being exchanged. Since web services are developed largely in an uncoordinated way, different services often use independently developed ontologies for the same domain instead of adheri...
متن کاملPresenting a method for extracting structured domain-dependent information from Farsi Web pages
Extracting structured information about entities from web texts is an important task in web mining, natural language processing, and information extraction. Information extraction is useful in many applications including search engines, question-answering systems, recommender systems, machine translation, etc. An information extraction system aims to identify the entities from the text and extr...
متن کاملA Conflict Resolution Environment for Autonomous Mediation Among Heterogeneous Databases
Our objective in this research is to develop a formal framework and methodology to facilitate semantic interoperability among distributed and heterogeneous information systems. The primary research question is, “how do we identify and resolve various dataand schematic-level conflicts among such disparate information sources?” A comprehensive formal framework for managing various semantic confli...
