Abstract
In this study we Introduce a three dimensional algorithm for ontology matching problem by comparing ontologies concepts from three dimensions (i) matching concepts based on name similarity (ii) matching concepts based on content similarity (iii) matching concepts based on relationship similarity. By comparing concepts from three dimensions we can trust our result since; the same concepts may be named by different labels or they may have the same names but differ in their attribute or their relations. In these cases if we rely on one dimension in the matching process; we will not discover the similarities. On the contrary, when the matching process relies on three dimensions, if one dimension can't discover the similarity the other will do.
