ABSTRACT
This paper addresses the problem of integrating various data sources and web services in an enterprise that uses a service-oriented architecture. We take advantage of ubiquitous enterprise concepts like Types of Things, Time and Position (What, When and Where) and build a context ontology for each that relates all the various representations across the enterprise. Then, we use Information System data models, context ontologies and a small number of simple OWL/RDF mappings to enable information originating in one part of the enterprise to be used in another in a way that is highly (if not fully) automated.
