This study is intended for implementing the system environment that can help integrate and retrieve various types of data in real-time by providing semantic interoperability among distributed heterogeneous information systems. The semantic interoperability is made possible by providing a TMDR(Topicmaps Metadata Registry), a set of ontologies. TMDR, which has been made by combining MDR(MetaData Registry) and TopicMaps and storing them in the database, is able to generate distributed query and provide efficient knowledge. MDR is a metadata management technique for distributed data management. TopicMaps is an ontology representation technique that takes into consideration the hierarchy and association for accessing knowledge data. We have created TMDR, a kind of ontology, that is fit for any system and able to detect and resolve semantic conflicts on the level of data and schema. With this system we propose a query-processing technique to integrate and access heterogeneous information sources. Unlike existing retrieval methods this makes possible efficient retrieval and reasoning by providing association focusing on subjects.

본 논문에서는 토픽맵 기반의 온톨로지 병합 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 충돌의 유형을 트리 구조로 정의하고 충돌 탐지 및 해결을 통하여 두 온톨로지를 하나로 병합하는 기법을 제안한다. 병합충돌은 의미적 대응 요소들의 유사값에 기반하여 엘리먼트기반, 구조기반 임시기반의 트리 구조로 분류되고 이 충돌 트리를 이용하여 두 매핑 요소사이의 병합충돌을 탐지하고 해결한다. 실험을 위해 토픽맵 질의언어 tolog를 사용하여 동서양 철학온톨로지 및 독일 문학온톨로지들의 병합 전과 후의 질의 결과를 비교하고 이를 정확율과 재현율로 병합 성능을 평가하였으며 그 결과 손실없는 병합이 가능함을 보였다.

The Topic Maps paradigm allows people and organizations to integrate and merge heterogeneous products classification systems such as UNSPSC and HS. Merging their product ontologies could combine information about classification scheme for products. We analyzed two product classification schemes for UML modeling and developed an integrated TM for watches . Examples in XTM syntax show how UNSPSC and HS can be integrated by merging their ontology.
