Abstract

Growth of an internet information source makes harder to user effective finding relevant information. Search engines and category hierarchical systems deal mainly with human purpose. But if there are the machines for integration or for adaptation used, then some meta-data information (data about data) have to be added to the processed data. There are some possibilities to store the meta-data information - the very effective one is an ontology representation.

The ontology (e.g. described in OWL) at least provides a hierarchical concept structure and restrictions for its instances. Ontologies can be integrated (mapped, merged) to a one complex ontology. This integration of ontologies brings many advantages. On the other hand, the integration brings many problems in case when input ontologies are not fully compatible. We want to find conditions for semi-automatic or fully automatic ontology integration.
