The evaluation of matching applications is becoming a major issue in the semantic web and it requires a suitable methodological approach as well as appropriate benchmarks. In particular, in order to evaluate a matching application under different experimental conditions, it is crucial to provide a test dataset characterized by a controlled variety of different heterogeneities among data that rarely occurs in real data repositories. In this paper, we propose SWING (Semantic Web INstance Generation), a disciplined approach to the semi-automatic generation of benchmarks to be used for the evaluation of matching applications.
