Abstract
The present invention is related to a method for modifying a mapping from at least one application path of a data system to a conceptual path of an ontology system, said application path addressing a part of the structure of the data system and said conceptual path addressing a part of the structure of the ontology system. The method comprises the steps of: detecting a change to a part of the structure of the ontology system one or more of the conceptual paths is addressing; updating the mappings to reflect the change to the part of the structure of the ontology system.
