	  abstract     = {Technological advances of computer science and data
analysis are helping to provide continuously huge volumes of
biological data, which are available on the web. Such advances
involve and require powerful techniques for data integration to
extract pertinent knowledge and information for a specific question.
Biomedical exploration of these big data often requires the use
of complex queries across multiple autonomous, heterogeneous
and distributed data sources. Semantic integration is an active
area of research in several disciplines, such as databases,
information-integration, and ontology. We provide a survey of some
approaches and techniques for integrating biological data, we focus
on those developed in the ontology community.},
