In this paper, a novel approach using Description Logic (DL) based inference rules, for ontology matching is presented. Alignment concerns ontology concepts, with the application of similarity measures to perform concepts and instances relationship alignments. Moreover, external knowledge, in the form of WordNet dictionary is then used to solve usual matching problems encountered with synonyms, polesemy, homonyms, etc. Illustrative examples are then presented to support the developed approach
