Abstract

Ontology mapping is the process whereby semantic relations are defined between two ontologies at conceptual level, which in turn are applied at data level transforming source ontology instances into target ontology instances. This paper focuses on the formalisation, representation and automatic specification of semantic relations between two ontologies. The described approach grounds on the notion of service, which represents not only the transformation capabilities of the system, but also the expertise in the manipulation of semantic relations. The main contributions of this paper are the formalisation of the ontology mapping process and the specification of the multidimensional service-oriented architecture.
