Abstract

With regard to the integration issue of product design and catalog information in PLM (Product Life-cycle Management), we proposed an ontology-based semantic integration framework. In this paper, the Semantic Matchmaker component of the framework is discussed in detail and matching techniques used are presented. Our matching approach takes terminological and structural matching methods as main solutions and utilizes the common upper ontology as well. The issue of this paper is about semantic mapping between two ontologies using description logic. It is the core component of the integration framework for product design and catalog.
