The purpose of this paper is to describe the process of OWL (Web Ontology Language) ontology merging and member function assignment for ontology elements. Ontology merging and member function assignment are necessary for the formation of SWES (Semantic Web Expert System) knowledge base. SWES is an expert system, which will be able to process OWL ontologies from the Web with the purpose to supplement or even to develop its knowledge base. The analysis of available publications shows that ontology merging and member function assignment for SWES are not investigated.
