Ontology Mapping for Interoperability in Semantic Web
نویسندگان
چکیده
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. The MAFRA Toolkit is an implementation of MAFRA, adopting an open architecture in order to observe the Semantic Web requirements, namely performance and transformation capabilities. One of the MAFRA Toolkit novelties respects its service-oriented approach, which claims that the capabilities of an ontology mapping system dependent on what transformations are present. Independent, plug able services are then responsible for the instances transformations, but they also provide support for other ontology mapping tasks like automatic specification of semantic relations, negotiation and evolution.

Public Transport Ontology for Passenger Information Retrieval
Passenger information aims at improving the user-friendliness of public transport systems while influencing passenger route choices to satisfy transit user’s travel requirements. The integration of transit information from multiple agencies is a major challenge in implementation of multi-modal passenger information systems. The problem of information sharing is further compounded by the multi-l...

One of the challenges of current medical information systems which is based on keyword searching, is that it may retrieve a large amount of irrelevant information during searching. Also, these systems don't provide interoperability among healthcare systems. For interfacing these challenges, and for the purposes of more interoperability between user and machine, semantic web (web 3) has been d...
متن کاملInteroperability using Ontology Mapping
The Semantic Web presents new opportunities for enabling modeling, sharing and reasoning with knowledge available on the web. These are made possible through the formal representation of the knowledge domain with ontologies. Ontology is also seen as a key factor for enabling interoperability across heterogeneous systems. Ontology mapping is required for combining distributed and heterogeneous o...
متن کاملArchetype-Based Semantic Interoperability of Web Service Messages in the Health Care Domain
In this article, we describe an infrastructure enabling archetype-based semantic interoperability of Web Service messages exchanged in the health care domain. We annotate the Web Service messages with the OWL representation of the archetypes. Then, by providing the ontology mapping between the archetypes, we show that the interoperability of the Web Service message instances can be achieved aut...
متن کاملApproximate Query Reformulation based on Hierarchical Ontology Mapping
This paper proposes an approximate query reformulation framework for integrating multiple ontologies. In order to achieve semantic interoperability in the Semantic Web, multiple ontologies have to be integrated. Ontology integration requires approximation mechanisms, since often no perfectly corresponding ontologies exist. However, most previous research efforts on ontology integration have not...
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 ...
