Abstract. GeRoMeSuite is a generic model management system which provides several functions for managing complex data models, such as schema integration, definition and execution of schema mappings, model transformation, and matching. The system uses the generic metamodel GeRoMe for representing models, and because of this, it is able to deal with models in various modeling languages such as XML Schema, OWL, ER, and relational schemas. A component for schema matching and ontology alignment is also part of the system. We participated this year the first time in the OAEI contest in order to evaluate and compare the performance of our matcher component with other systems. Therefore, we focused our efforts on the ‘benchmark ’ track. 1 Presentation of the system Manipulation of models and mappings is a common task in the design and development of information systems. Research in Model Management aims at supporting these tasks by providing a set of operators to manipulate models and mappings. As a framework, GeRoMeSuite [4] provides an environment to simplify the implementation of
