Abstract

The growth in the use of distributed architectures, especially in the Web context, has contributed to make it possible to use previously isolated information in an integrated way. Ontologies play a fundamental role in this integration, facilitating the semantic interoperability of heterogeneous distributed systems. This article is an output of the research project entitled “Integrating Ontologies: the domain of Bioinformatics and the problem of terminological compatibility” which aims to develop guidelines which allow the development, use and integration of ontologies employed in the description and retrieval of Bioinformatics resources and services.
