Abstract

Available ontologies of different information sources are often heterogeneous. It is critical to find an effective solution for many problems of collaborative environment. This paper presents a novel approach to completing heterogeneous collaboration environment that offers a means for developers to describe context essentials with intent-extent of context, to construct context facades using ontological slice, and to implement mediating collaboration based on the context facades.

Keywords
