Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to describe the process of OWL ontology merging and member function assignment for ontology elements. Ontology merging and member function assignment are necessary for constructing a Semantic Web Expert System (SWES) knowledge base. We use the acronym SWES to refer to expert systems which are capable of processing OWL ontologies from the Web with the purpose to supplement or even to develop their knowledge base. To our knowledge, the tasks of ontology merging and member function assignment for SWES have not yet been investigated.
