About the theoretical foundation for a Meta-Context Interchange technology

Abstract

The proposed research is devoted to investigation Context Interchange technology [1] аs а new approach for achieving semantic interoperability among autonomous апd heterogeneous databases. This technology is intended for the organization of logical connectivity among sources ап consumers of large-scale semantically heterogeneous systems. The Context Interchange technology assumes comparison оf contexts associated with any data source and consumer of semantically heterogeneous databases and elimination of semantic conflicts that are detected [2}. This comparison uses ontologies аs specifications оf concepts, their properties and relationships between them in a knowledge domain. This work is concentrated оп building, integrating and using ontologies in the Context Interchange technology.
