This is an electronic version of the paper presented at the European Workshop on Mechanisms for Mastering Future Internet, held in Salzburg on 2008This paper presents an ontology-based approach to integrate the
measurements provided by different network monitoring tools and platforms.
The combination of such measurements is valuable to network operators,
enabling the development of new management applications. The use of
ontologies provides some advantages over current syntactic solutions:
classification, inference and querying capabilities are some of them. Moreover,
they can reduce the complexity of information integration, providing solutions
that can be applied to existing network monitoring infrastructures.This work has been partially funded by the European Union
under the project FP7-MOMENT (INFSO-ICT-215225)
