Abstract

With the success of the internet and the expansion of the amount of data in the web, the exchange of information from various heterogeneous and classical data sources becomes a critical need. In this context, researchers must propose integration solutions that allow applications to simultaneously access several data sources. In this perspective, we propose a semi-automatic integration approach of classical data sources via a global schema located in database management systems of RDF or OWL data, called triplestore. Our contribution is subdivided into three axes: 1) an automatic mapping solution that converts classical data sources such as UML, XML and RDB to local ontologies based on OWL2 language; 2) an alignment system of local ontologies based on syntactic, semantic and structural similarity measurement techniques in order to increase the probability of having real correspondences and real differences; 3) a fusion system of pre-existing local ontologies into a global ontology based on the alignment found in the previous step.
