Ontologies are expected in various areas as promising tools to improve communication among people and to achieve interoperability among systems. For communications between different business domains, building an ontology through integrating existing ontologies is more efficient way than building the ontology without them. However, integration of ontologies is very struggling work since languages, domains, and structures of ontologies are different from each other. In this paper, we suggest an Ontology Architecture which solves this problem by providing a systematic framework to classify ontologies from three kinds of viewpoints : language, domain range, constructs. The Ontology Architecture consists of 3 axes according to the 3 viewpoints : Ontology Meta Layer axis, Semantic Domain Layer axis, and Ontology Constructs Layer axis. Because 3 axes in Ontology Architecture are designed to improve the syntactic and semantic interoperability among ontologies, the integration of ontologies can be readily achieved.

온톨로지는 사람들 간의 정확한 의사소통을 가능하게 하고 시스템 사이의 상호운용성을 달성하기 위한 도구로서 다양한 분야에서 많은 기대를 받고 있는 기술이다. 온톨로지의 구축은 기존 온톨로지들간의 통합을 통해 더욱 효율적으로 이루어질 수 있다. 그러나 기존 온톨로지들이 표현 언어, 대상 도메인, 온톨로지 구성요소 등의 측면에서 다양한 형태와 특성을 가지므로, 온톨로지 통합이 이루어지기 위해서는 온톨로지들 간의 상호운용성의 확보가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 온톨로지를 분류하는 체계적인 프레임워크의 제공을 통해 온톨로지들 간의 상호운용성 확보를 지원하는 온톨로지 아키텍처를 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 온톨로지 아키텍처는 온톨로지를 바라보는 3가지 관점에 따라 MDA에 기반한 온톨로지 표현 분류축, 시맨틱 도메인 분류축, 온톨로지 구성요소 분류축의 3개 분류축으로 이루어져 있으며, MDA의 4계층 메타모델링을 문법적인 기반으로 하고 있다. 온톨로지 아키텍처의 3개의 분류축은 온톨로지들 간의 문법적인 상호운용성과 의미적인 상호운용성을 향상시키기 위해 조화롭게 설계됨으로써 온톨로지 통합이 유연하게 이루어지도록 지원한다.

다양한 온톨로지들이 구축되고 이를 적용한 시스템들이 늘어가면서 시스템 간 상호운용성에 문제가 발생하게 되었다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 공통 개념이라 볼 수 있는 온톨로지를 메타데이터 레지스트리에 등록하고, 이를 기반으로 한 시스템들이 개발되면서 시스템 간 상호운용성이 향상되었다. 하지만 서로 다른 메타데이터 레지스트리를 기반으로 한 시스템 간에는 상호운용성 문제가 여전히 존재하므로, 메타데이터 레지스트리에 등록된 온톨로지 간 매칭 방법에 대한 필요성이 대두되었다. 기존의 온톨로지 매칭 방법들은 온톨로지의 규모가 작을 경우 정확한 매칭 결과를 제공하지 못하는 문제점을 가진다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 메타데이터에 레지스트리에 등록된 온톨로지들을 매칭하기 위하여 메타데이터 레지스트리의 구조상의 특징을 반영하여 온톨로지를 확장한다. 그리고 확장된 온톨로지를 이용하여 온톨로지를 매칭 함으로써 정확한 매칭이 이루어지는 온톨로지 매칭 방법을 제안한다. 또한 제안 방법의 장점을 보이기 위해 기존 온톨로지 매칭 방법들과의 비교평가를 수행한다. 제안 방법은 매칭의 정확성을 보장하고 효율성을 높이며 메타데이터 레지스트리간 상호운용성을 높인다.

Although ISO 25964-2 was introduced in 2013, existing research about it that can be used for analysis and basis for its application is scarce. This study analyzed the interoperability of vocabularies emphasized in ISO 25964-2. First, this study examined the mapping types of the concept sharing method. In addition, based on the mapping types, this study sought for and examined the interoperability method between a thesaurus and ontology. Lastly, this study has suggested a thesaurus and ontology interoperability model and designed and constructed an ontology model for administrative department names in Korea to verify the possible of the model.

As interoperability between systems in distributed environment has been important, it has been possible for various organizations to share resources and exchange relevant information. However, semantic heterogeneity between the systems and organizations causes the problem of making their interoperability impossible. Thereby, in this paper, we propose an ontology matching-based knowledge management system which can automatically discover semantic correspondences between ontologies. Moreover, even though there have been many existing ontology matchers, it is still difficult to directly apply them to the proposed system. To deal with the problems, we want to discover matching patterns (MP) which they discover from two given ontologies.

This research proposes a concept of multi-aspect Social IoT platform that enables human, machine and service to communicate smoothly among them, as well as a means of an automatic process for transforming exiting domain knowledge representation to generic ontology representation used in the platform. Current research focuses on building a machine-based service interoperability using sensor ontology and device ontology. However, to the best of our knowledge, the research on building a semantic model reflecting multi-aspects among human, machine, and service seems to be very insufficient. Therefor, in the research we first build a multi-aspect ontology schema to transform the representation used in each domain as a part of IoT into ontology-based representation, and then develop an automatic process of generating multi-aspect IoT ontology from the domain knowledge based on the schema.

With the development of multimedia and network technology, the production of multimedia contents is rapidly increasing. Meanwhile, the technology to search and use the contents is still insufficient. There are standards for multimedia contents to address the problem, but they cannot fully support diverse multimedia data types or ensure their interoperability. In this paper, an ontology-based content search system is proposed to ensure the interoperability of multimedia contents. The ontology is configured by presenting the rules for it using the schema structure of the multimedia description scheme (MDS) of MPEG-7. Based on this ontology, This paper extend multimedia relationship based on ontology, thus established the semantic retrieval system.

With the abundance of digital contents, the necessity of precise indexing technology is consistently required. To meet these requirements, the intelligent software entity needs to be the subject of information retrieval and the interoperability among intelligent entities including human must be supported. In this paper, we analyze the unifying framework for multi-modality indexing that Snoek and Worring proposed. Our work investigates the method of improving the authenticity of indexing information in contents-based automated indexing techniques. It supports the creation and control of abstracted high-level indexing information through ontological concepts of Semantic Web skills. Moreover, it attempts to present the fundamental model that allows interoperability between human and machine and between machine and machine. The memory-residence model of processing ontology is inappropriate in order to take-in an enormous amount of indexing information. The use of ontology repository and inference engine is required for consistent retrieval and reasoning of logically expressed knowledge. Our work presents an experiment for storing and retrieving the designed knowledge by using the Minerva ontology repository, which demonstrates satisfied techniques and efficient requirements. At last, the efficient indexing possibility with related research is also considered.

Mapping FRSAD and other ontology models intends to suggest a higher knowledge level that is independent of any information implementation system or specific context, and to endeavor to focus on the semantics, knowledge structures, subject access, and interoperability. Providing an application of FRSAD model to information environment and representing and sharing the information within the library sector and beyond, there needs encoding scheme for knowledge representation. This study suggested an OWL based ontology architecture for FRSAD model and demonstrated the pilot FRSAD ontology model using Prot$\acute{e}$g$\acute{e}$ software.
