Re: Semweb ontology-to-ontology

You might look at Top Quadrant's SPIN Map:
http://composing-the-semantic-web.blogspot.com/2011/04/spinmap-sparql-based-ontology-mapping.html
I think there's a video here also;
http://vimeo.com/22695742
At the last SemTech conference Rafael Richards described a short 
demonstration that TopQuadrant did mapping some simple VA health data:
http://dbooth.org/2014/richards/Linked-Vitals-RMRichards-20140820-v3.pdf

Commercial integration engines provide GUIs for creating mappings 
between different data representations, but AFAICT they are not yet 
using RDF as a common information representation, and they often use 
their own proprietary scripting languages and techniques for performing 
the data translations.  I think it would be great if they could use RDF, 
and offered the ability to export the created translation rules in a 
standard, executable languages, such as SPARQL.  I think this is an 
unmet opportunity.  The HL7 web site lists some integration engines (or 
"interface engines"):
