Semantic-based knowledge and content systems ” D 3 . 3 . 2 : Matching ontologies for context : The NeOn Alignment plug-in Deliverable

This deliverable presents the software support provided by the NeOn toolkit for matching ontologies, and in particular, recontextualise them. This support comes through the NeOn Alignment plug-in which integrate the Alignment API and offer access to Alignment servers in the NeOn toolkit. We present the NeOn Alignment plug-in as well as several enhancement of the Alignment server: the integration of three matching methods developed within NeOn, i.e., Semantic Mapper, OLA and Scarlet, as well as the connection of the Alignment servers with Oyster.
