A central aspect of HCONE-merge is the mapping of ontology concepts to a hidden intermediate ontology by uncovering the intended meaning of concepts. Such a mapping is realized by ...
Semantic search has been one of the motivations of the Semantic Web since it was envisioned. We propose a model for the exploitation of ontologybased KBs to improve search over lar...
In a real world scenario Semantic Web applications must be capable to cope with the large scale, distributed, heterogeneous, unreliable and insecure environment of the World Wide W...

The automatic location of services that fulfill a given need is seen as a key step towards dynamic and scalable integration. In this paper we present a model for the automatic loc...
The power of Web Service (WS) technology lies in the fact that it establishes a common, vendor-neutral platform for integrating distributed computing applications, in intranets as ...

The Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web in which information is given well-defined meaning to support effective data discovery and integration. The RDF framework is a...
The paper addresses the problem of reasoning with multiple ontologies interrelated with semantic mappings. This problem is becoming more and more relevant due to the necessity of b...
