Semantic integration with ontology based approach
Ghonia Pooja Mansukhlal, C. Malathy · 2016
Semantic integration is a dynamic area of research in several disciplines, such as databases, integration of information and ontologies. Aim of the paper is to survey the approaches of semantic integration developed by researchers in the community of ontology. Semantics refer to the meaning of data in contrast to syntax, which only defines the semantics of the schema items such as classes and attributes. Techniques are defined for finding correspondences between ontologies, declarative ways of in place of these correspondences, and use of these correspondences in various semantic integration tasks. Three layers of semantic web are discussed in this paper.
