....and work of Guarino et al. Guarino, Carrara, and Giaretta 1994] state how representations can be defined and constrained to reduce interpretation ambiguity for ontology sharing. The focus is ontology content design for sharing representations, not application support. Yet others, like ONIONS [Gangemi, Steve, and Giancomelli 1996] and Physsys [Borst et al. 1996] specify systems architectures and constraints so that ontologies as a whole can be shared, regardless of how a given term in an ontology is defined. The focus is on specifying the appropriate context for ontology sharing, not on ontology content. Ontological ....

....paper reviews the formal and conceptual tools employed in this task, presents the most significant results obtained, and discusses two case studies. 1. Introduction ONIONS methodology for ontology integration has been developed since 1992 to account for the problem of conceptual heterogeneity [12][37] 38] It also addresses some problems encountered in the context of the European project GALEN [11] and the Italian projects SOLMC (Ontologic and Linguistic Tools for Conceptual Modelling) 16] and ONTOINT (see the URL: http: saussure.irmkant.rm.cnr.it onto ontoint.html) It is being applied ....

....proposals are presented to wider audiences for criticism. Some can go back to the initial stages, some may be ready to be accepted. The idea is to try to find a standardized uppermodel that would greatly ease some kinds of integration efforts. ONIONS (ONtologic Integration Of Naive Sources) (Gangemi, Steve Giacomelli 1996, Steve Gangemi 1996, Gangemi et al. 1998) is a methodology for merging 10 ontologically heterogeneous taxonomic knowledge which has been used to build the formal medical ontology IMO (Integrated Medical Ontology) and a library of generic ontologies ON9. The ONIONS methodology was successfully ....

....apply generally in the development of ontologies, they also suggest that they are not always sensible or even feasible. Guidelines on when these principles do or do not apply would therefore be a useful addition. 3.4. ONIONS The ONIONS (ONtologic Integration Of Naive Sources) methodology [9], 24] is motivated by the knowledge integration problem, i.e. how to integrate heterogeneous sources of information in knowledge acquisition. This problem is addressed through the creation of a formal domain ontology by the integration of existing repositories of knowledge. One of the most ....

.... formalizing ontologies from the literature in AI, philosophy, linguistics, cognitive science; generating a domain ontology for each terminology system by including a subset of the generic library as the building blocks which have motivated the particular organization of the terminology system [Gan96, Ste96] Once these processes are carried out, different domain ontologies can be integrated because they share the library of generic ontologies. ONIONS then led to the successful integration of the most general concepts (more than five thousands) of five terminology systems . A complete ....
