Combining OWL Ontology and Schema Annotations in Metadata Management

Abstract

We discuss a problem of using knowledge acquired in semantic annotation and provided by OWL ontology for deciding about the existence of semantic mappings between XML schemas. The problem is identified as a metadata management problem faced in data exchange and data integration systems. We show how AI, semantic Web and database technologies may be combined to obtain schema mappings and to reason about semantic preservation of these mappings.

Keywords

Schema Mapping Tree Pattern Semantic Annotation Schema Annotation Data Integration System 
These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
