Abstract :
In recent years, as the study on semantic Web actively progresses, the domain ontology is developed as a key factor for enabling interoperability across heterogeneous systems, and many domain ontologies are being built, but many ontologies on the same domain are different, interoperability between these domain ontologies are very low, many ontology tools concentrate on the functions to create or edit the ontology, methods for integrating heterogeneous domain ontologies are not in most tools. Because of these reasons, this paper provides readers with an ontology semantic mapping system based on e-commerce and logistics ontologies, and could be used in both Chinese and English environment. The system can find the semantic relationship between two heterogeneous ontologies, solve information integration and sharing problem between related concepts in e-commerce and logistics field, and promote effective use and sharing of knowledge. The function and effect of each system module were introduced in detail. Mapping steps and results were presented also.
