AMEF: Artemis Message Exchange Framework

• Mapping tool helps user produce mapping from source to target
• Those mapping are then applied automatically

"Semantic interoperability is the ability for information shared by systems to be understood at the level of formally defined domain concepts so that the information is computer processable by the receiving system." [10]

"between any incompatible healthcare standards"

• Highlight a difference between incompatible and non-interoperable?
  • Syntactic vs semantic differences

Concept normalization: Producing an OWL ontology from message XML schemas

• Data normalization does the reverse

Fairly manual mapping process
