Achieving interoperability in e-government services with two modes of semantic bridging: SRS and SWRL

Data heterogeneity in the public sector is a serious problem and remains to be a key issue as different naming conventions are used to represent similar data labels. The e-government effort in many countries has provided a platform for government entities and their business partners to exchange data...
