Abstract(in English) One of the most important issues in the multidatabase research is semantic heterogeneity in autonomous databases.In this paper,we present a new model for realizing semantic interoperability among data items in multidatabase systems. In multidatabase systems,one of the hardest problems is that it is difficult to judge equivalence or similarity between data items which are included in different databases.Our mathematical model of meaning is used to find different data items with the equivalent or similar meaning or to recognize the different meanings of a data item.The main feature of this model is that the specific meaning of a data item can be recognized disambiguously and dynamically according to the context.
