About
========
Social Web sites, such as Facebook, YouTube, Delicious, Flickr and
Wikipedia, and numerous other Web applications, such as Google and
Amazon, rely on implicitly or explicitly collected data about their
users and their activities to provide personalized content and services.

reuse, and integrate user data from different sources. Such
data comes in different flavors: user data such [...]

The oceans cover 71% of the Earth's surface and represent one of the least

The Sixth International Workshop on
ONTOLOGY MATCHING
(OM-2011)
http://om2011.ontologymatching.org/
October 23 or 24, 2011, ISWC Workshop Program, Bonn, Germany

BRIEF DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
Ontology matching is a key interoperability enabler for the Semantic Web,
as well as a useful tactic in some classical data integration tasks
dealing with the semantic heterogeneity problem. It takes the ontologies
as input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of
correspondences between the semantically related entities of those ontologies.
These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology
merging, data [...]
