Ontologies are seen because the silver bullet for plenty of functions, yet in open or evolving platforms, assorted events can undertake diverse ontologies. This raises heterogeneity difficulties instead of lowering heterogeneity. This publication proposes ontology matching as an answer to the matter of semantic heterogeneity, delivering researchers and practitioners a uniform framework of connection with at the moment on hand paintings. The recommendations provided observe to database schema matching, catalog integration, XML schema matching and extra.

2), information on the web is not described by a global schema over which queries can be expressed. Moreover, users are used to query the web using their own terminology. Then a semantic query answering system on the web has to rewrite the query with respect to available ontologies in order to use reasoning for providing answers. , 2006b]. , AquaLog interprets it in terms of entities available in the system ontology. For this, it first translates this query into the following triples: projects, related to, researchers and researchers, working, ontologies .

SQL:1999 and SQL:2003. These support many modelling capabilities, such as user-defined types, aggregation, generalisation, etc. 4 XML schemas Document Type Definitions (DTDs) and XML schemas have been introduced for specifying the structure of XML documents. The main ingredients of XML schemas include elements, attributes, and types. In turn, elements can be either complex for specifying nested subelements, or simple for specifying built-in datatypes, such as string, for an element or attribute.

0; otherwise, these are mentioned near the arrows. In case of multiple matching (1), the alignments must contain correspondences relating more than two entities. The definitions above must then be extended accordingly. This is not covered further here. The second kind of correspondences (2) can be thought of as using non binary relations. However, given the nature of the problem: matching two ontologies, we will consider that these objects can be grouped by operators in the entity language QL which can include operators such as concatenation, arithmetic operations or logical connectors for that purpose.
