Abstract. This paper presents a framework to align synonymous concepts of multiple ontologies. It applies the information attached to the concept including label, description and property relations. Label is a feature to consider for like-ness of concept's name which can be the same, partial alike, or totally different. Description is an optional feature in case the given definition of the concepts is similar. Properties of the concept are the major feature to indicate the equivalent relation of the concepts to another concepts and their datatype. After the equiva-lent concepts are assigned, confidence score is calculated to provide a confi-dence value of the alignments. From the result, the system gains the impressive result as it can align synonymous concepts as same as the manual mapping con-cept list.
