In many layered systems, some conflicts when concepts at a high level of abstraction need to be translated into lower, more concrete artifacts. This mismatch is often called semantic gap. For example, semantic gap denotes the difference between the complex operations performed by high-level language constructs and the simple ones provided by computer instruction sets. It was in an attempt to try to close this gap that computer architects designed increasingly complex instruction set computers. On the other hand OODBMSs advocates sometimes claim that these databases help to reduce the semantic gap between the application domain (miniworld) and the storage structures http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0ISJ/is_n2_v33/ai_15519487/pg_4.
