François Scharffe and Jos de Bruijn. A language to specify mappings between ontologies. In Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Signal-Image Technology and Internet-Based Systems (SITIS2005), Yandoué, Cameroon, November 2005. Dicolor Press.

The ontology mediation field aims at finding techniques and frameworks to allow interoperability between overlapping heterogeneous ontologies. One of the solutions is to designing mappings that link the corresponding entities. Many systems and algorithms have been built by different parties, but each system represents the mappings in its own format. To allow reusability of the mapping tools and of the results of the algorithms, we have designed a language to express these mappings. In this paper, we will present this mapping language.
