The integration of distributed and heterogeneous ontologies is one of
the basic problems in the development of techniques for the Semantic Web. Ontological
interoperability is not obtained simply by making a global level common
ontology that captures the mapping between different local ontologies. It is
very common in the Semantic Web that concepts represented in different ontologies
are mutually inconsistent. This paper provides a unique pragmatic view
on developing a tool for ontology integration.
