Ontology based resolution of semantic conflicts in information integration
Tóm tắt
Semantic conflict is the conflict caused by using different ways in heterogeneous systems to express the same entity in reality. This prevents information integration from accomplishing semantic coherence. Since ontology helps to solve semantic problems, this area has become a hot topic in information integration. In this paper, we introduce semantic conflict into information integration of heterogeneous applications. We discuss the origins and categories of the conflict, and present an ontology-based schema mapping approach to eliminate semantic conflicts.
