Abstract

Ontology integration approaches handle multiple different ontologies by identifying mappings between heterogeneous ontologies or by merging them into a single ontology. In this paper, existing ontology integration approaches are analyzed in order to identify the methods they are based on. The result of this paper is a survey of methods, which are used in ontology integration approaches, based on existing literature studies. We intent to use this information to (i) identify suitable tools for specific use cases and to (ii) ease the development of future tools easier since suitable methods are described.
