Objective: High precision in semantic interoperation of autonomous sources

• Basic -- pessimistic -- assumption:

  • The ontological mapping of terms ? objects differs between autonomous domains.

• But

  • The collections of real-world objects provides a grounding for the definitions, and an opportunity to validate the meaning of the terms being employed.
  • Relationships have semantic and a related structural significance.
