3. My backgroud MS in Computer Science Engineering at Politecnico di Bari in 2006. Collaboration with the DIETI group headed by Prof. Antonio Picariello. Research fellow at Institute of Industrial Technologies and Automation, (CNR). Previous: software developer at IBM Spa and Sintesi Spa Enrico Caldarola3

4. The problem Determining and overcoming mismatchings between ontologies in order to allow the reuse of such ontologies and their integration, fostering the concrete realization of the semantic web. Scaling ontology integration techniques in terms of Big Data. Enrico Caldarola4

5. Research activities The idea is to combine and eventually enhance ontology integration and semantic matching techniques also evaluating their scalability in terms of Big Data. Methodology: – Literature review of existing and well-known ontology matching techniques and methodologies; – Literature review of Big Data articles, from the high- level characterization of the term “Big” throughout the Volume-Velocity-Variety model, to the existing technologies dealing with very large databases in terms of storage and computing. 5 Enrico Caldarola

6. Research activities Development of a framework that, given two or more input ontologies expressed in OWL language and an upper-level ontology as a reference, outputs an alignement between the inputs. Results: improving the existing integration methodologies enhancing the interoperability among knoweldge models. 6Enrico Caldarola

7. Research activities The validation will be carried out with respect to some existing gold standards ad will aim at evaluating the accuracy of the resulting alignments also by adopting consistency checks. 7Enrico Caldarola
