Overall model forsemanticinteroperability Aims • Strategies for retrieval and exploration in distributed systems • Integration of structurally and typologically different systems • Overall system consisting of an ontological spine and attached satellites Features • Simple hierarchical core system • Detailed bilateral mappings • Expressive multidimensional definition of intersystem and interconcept relations • Shared inventory of standard relations 7

Retrieval paradigms Conceptual exploration Conceptual query Simple pattern matching „TREE“ Thematic exploration 9
Levels of interoperability „TREE“ Enhanced conceptual interoperability Conceptual interoperability Basic interoperability 10
Basic interoperability Simple pattern matching „TREE“ Features • Easy implementation • No indexing languages required • Limited access and limited search functionalities • No modification / expansion possible Methods • Mapping on word level • Unspecified one-to-one equivalences represented in a simple cross-concordance. 11
Basic interoperability Simple pattern matching
Conceptual interoperability Conceptual query Features • Focus on the conceptual level • Multiple access points via synonyms • Structural transparency • Simple expansion strategies Methods • Mapping concepts independently from their actual representation in the various indexing languages. • Structural and typological differences should be taken into account. 13
Conceptual interoperability Conceptual query
Enhanced conceptual interoperability Conceptual exploration Features • Modification / expansion of queries • Conceptual exploration of a knowledge field • Query-clarification as a useful pre-search mechanism Requirements • Various types of expressive semantic relations have to be specified in great detail. • Well-structured relational inventories • Control- and selection-mechanisms to handle the complexity of the relational structure 15
Enhanced conceptual interoperability Conceptual exploration Methods • Differentiated conceptual mappings • Interpretation of the semantically enhanced relational structure • Relations between concepts have to be specified 16
