Abstract
In this paper, the authors present a three-level mediator based framework for linked data integration. In the approach, the mediated schema is represented by a domain ontology, which provides a conceptual representation of the application. Each relevant data source is described by a source ontology, published on the Web according to the Linked Data principles. Each source ontology is rewritten as an application ontology, whose vocabulary is restricted to be a subset of the vocabulary of the domain ontology. The main contribution of the paper is an algorithm for reformulating a user query into sub-queries over the data sources. The reformulation algorithm exploits inter-ontology links to return more complete query results. The approach is illustrated by an example of a virtual store mediating access to online booksellers.
