SKOS Simple Knowledge Organization System - home page SKOS is an area of work developing specifications and standards to support the use of knowledge organization systems (KOS) such as thesauri, classification schemes, subject heading lists and taxonomies within the framework of the Semantic Web ... [read more] Alignment between SKOS and new ISO 25964 thesaurus standard (2012-12-13) ISO 25964-1, published in 2011, replaced the previous thesaurus standards ISO 2788 and ISO 5964 (both now withdrawn). From Chaos, Order: SKOS Recommendation Helps Organize Knowledge (2009-08-18) Today W3C announces a new standard that builds a bridge between the world of knowledge organization systems - including thesauri, classifications, subject headings, taxonomies, and folksonomies - and the linked data community, bringing benefits to both. Call for Review: SKOS Reference Proposed Recommendation (2009-06-15) The Semantic Web Deployment Working Group has published the Proposed Recommendation of SKOS Simple Knowledge Organization System Reference.

Specification | UDDI The current list of specifications advanced by the OASIS UDDI Specification Technical Committee includes: The UDDI Version 2 specifications, UDDI Version 3 specification and the Schema Centric XML Canonicalization Specification represent contributed material. Notes and Disclaimers are provided on each of these specification documents. UDDI Version History Since UDDI was proposed in 2000, it has evolved to reflect the need for manageability and federated control in enterprise operating scenarios, as well as to integrate more fully with other elements of service-oriented infrastructure. Version 1.0, released in 2000, created a foundation for the registry of Internet-based business services. UDDI Version 3 Specification The UDDI v3 OASIS Standard builds on the vision of UDDI as a "meta service" for locating Web services by enabling robust queries against rich metadata. UDDI Version 2 Specifications The UDDI v2 OASIS Standard set of specifications consists of the following documents:

Resource Description Framework The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a family of World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specifications[1] originally designed as a metadata data model. It has come to be used as a general method for conceptual description or modeling of information that is implemented in web resources, using a variety of syntax notations and data serialization formats. It is also used in knowledge management applications. RDF was adopted as a W3C recommendation in 1999. Overview[edit] RDF is an abstract model with several serialization formats (i.e. file formats), so the particular encoding for resources or triples varies from format to format. This mechanism for describing resources is a major component in the W3C's Semantic Web activity: an evolutionary stage of the World Wide Web in which automated software can store, exchange, and use machine-readable information distributed throughout the Web, in turn enabling users to deal with the information with greater efficiency and certainty.

Ontologie, thésaurus, taxonomie et Web sémantique - 2004-03-19 - Ontologie, thésaurus, taxonomie et Web sémantique Comme cela arrive souvent, on me pose des questions par courrier électronique qui sont intéressantes mais dont je n'ai pas forcément la réponse immédiate donc cela demande beaucoup de recherche et de lectures. Ce n'est pas trop un problème car la question était fort intéressante. Je ne vais pas citer le nom de l'auteur du courrier sauf s'il m'y autorise. Quelle est la différence entre ontologie et thésaurus ? une ontologie correspond ni plus ni moins à ce que les documentalistes [...] appelaient un thésaurus. Philosophie Abordons tout de suite un premier point douloureux pour l'évacuer et se concentrer donc sur le sujet. ontologie n. f. • 1692; lat. philos. ontologia (1646) Philosophie. Le monde des sciences de l'information et surtout du Web sémantique s'est approprié ce terme, je ne sais par quel truchement, mais c'est un fait et au plus grand dam de nombreux philosophes.

Ontología (informática) El término ontología en informática hace referencia a la formulación de un exhaustivo y riguroso esquema conceptual dentro de uno o varios dominios dados; con la finalidad de facilitar la comunicación y el intercambio de información entre diferentes sistemas y entidades. Aunque toma su nombre por analogía, ésta es la diferencia con el punto de vista filosófico de la palabra ontología. Un uso común tecnológico actual del concepto de ontología, en este sentido semántico, lo encontramos en la inteligencia artificial y la representación del conocimiento. En algunas aplicaciones, se combinan varios esquemas en una estructura de facto completa de datos, que contiene todas las entidades relevantes y sus relaciones dentro del dominio. Típicamente, las ontologías en las computadoras se relacionan estrechamente con vocabularios fijos –una ontología fundacional– con cuyos términos debe ser descrito todo lo demás.

Faceted navigation for document discovery Better search with faceted navigation Text search is one of the most important ways that users of enterprise content can find the documents they need. Unfortunately, there are a number of reasons why enterprise text search systems often work less well than search of the public Internet (Enterprise Search: Tough Stuff, Rajat Mukherjee and Jianchang Mao. ACM Queue vol. 2, no. 2, April 2004). The main reason is that most enterprise content isn't cross-linked, so the search system doesn't have the page rank information that identifies "good" pages on a topic. Thus there is an opportunity to improve search within enterprises by using metadata. While there are several different ways for a user to specify metadata conditions, this article is about one that has special advantages: faceted navigation. Back to top Example of faceted navigation The faceted navigation search interface of Croton is shown in Figure 1. This example illustrates three key features of faceted navigation: Figure 1.

RDF Primer The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a language for representing information about resources in the World Wide Web. This Primer is designed to provide the reader with the basic knowledge required to effectively use RDF. It introduces the basic concepts of RDF and describes its XML syntax. It describes how to define RDF vocabularies using the RDF Vocabulary Description Language, and gives an overview of some deployed RDF applications. It also describes the content and purpose of other RDF specification documents. 1. The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a language for representing information about resources in the World Wide Web. RDF is intended for situations in which this information needs to be processed by applications, rather than being only displayed to people. RDF is based on the idea of identifying things using Web identifiers (called Uniform Resource Identifiers, or URIs), and describing resources in terms of simple properties and property values. <? 2.

FOAF Vocabulary Specification Classes Class: foaf:Agent Agent - An agent (eg. person, group, software or physical artifact). The Agent class is the class of agents; things that do stuff. The Agent class is useful in a few places in FOAF where Person would have been overly specific. [#] [back to top] Class: foaf:Document Document - A document. The Document class represents those things which are, broadly conceived, 'documents'. The Image class is a sub-class of Document, since all images are documents. We do not (currently) distinguish precisely between physical and electronic documents, or between copies of a work and the abstraction those copies embody. [#] [back to top] Class: foaf:Group Group - A class of Agents. The Group class represents a collection of individual agents (and may itself play the role of a Agent, ie. something that can perform actions). This concept is intentionally quite broad, covering informal and ad-hoc groups, long-lived communities, organizational groups within a workplace, etc. Here is an example.

Simple Knowledge Organisation System Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. SKOS ou Simple Knowledge Organization System (Système simple d'organisation des connaissances) est une recommandation du W3C publiée le 18 août 2009 pour représenter des thésaurus, classifications ou d'autres types de vocabulaires contrôlés ou de langages documentaires. S'appuyant sur le modèle de données RDF, son principal objectif est de permettre la publication facile de vocabulaires structurés pour leur utilisation dans le cadre du Web sémantique. Le développement de SKOS a impliqué des acteurs à la fois de la communauté RDF et des experts en Science de l'information. SKOS cherche à être au maximum compatible avec les standards tels ceux des thésaurus, monolingue ou multilingue[1]. Historique[modifier | modifier le code] SWAD Europe (2002-2004) SKOS a d'abord été un produit du projet SWAD-Europe[2], un projet financé par la Communauté européenne, dans le cadre du programme Technologies de la Société de l'Information[3].

SPARQL SPARQL (pronounced "sparkle", a recursive acronym for SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language) is an RDF query language, that is, a semantic query language for databases, able to retrieve and manipulate data stored in Resource Description Framework format.[2][3] It was made a standard by the RDF Data Access Working Group (DAWG) of the World Wide Web Consortium, and is recognized as one of the key technologies of the semantic web. On 15 January 2008, SPARQL 1.0 became an official W3C Recommendation,[4][5] and SPARQL 1.1 in March, 2013.[6] SPARQL allows for a query to consist of triple patterns, conjunctions, disjunctions, and optional patterns.[7] Implementations for multiple programming languages exist.[8] "SPARQL will make a huge difference" making the web machine-readable according to Sir Tim Berners-Lee in a May 2006 interview.[9] Advantages[edit] The example below demonstrates a simple query that leverages the ontology definition "foaf", often called the "friend-of-a-friend" ontology.
