This article surveys the overall content management process and discusses requirements for its scalable support.

Semantic web portals: state-of-the-art survey

Therefore they require efficient support for communication and information sharing. Current Web technologies employed to build up these portals present serious limitations regarding facilities for searching, accessing, extracting, interpreting and processing for information. These limitations are naturally inherited by existing portals, thus hampering the communication and information sharing process between community members.

Therefore they require efficient support for communication and information sharing. Current Web technologies employed to build up these portals present serious limitations regarding facilities for searching, accessing, extracting, interpreting and processing of information. The application of Semantic Web technologies has the potential of overcoming these limitations and will lead to semantically enhanced Web portals. This paper presents the state of the art application of Semantic Web technologies in web portals and the improvements achieved by the use of such technologies.

However, no survey is available for the ontology library system. For this reason, we decided to examine existing library systems in this paper. First, we identified the main criteria (management, adaptation, and standardization) for evaluating the functionality of the library systems. Then, based on the further enriched criteria, we surveyed most existing ontology library systems. Finally, we summarized the comparison and proposed various important requirements for structuring ontology library systems. The ontology library systems surveyed include: WebOnto, Ontolingua, DAML Ontology Library System, SHOE, Ontology Server, IEEE Standard Upper Ontology, OntoServer and ONIONS.

The semantic web: yet another hip

For this reason, support in data, information, and knowledge exchange has become a key issue in current computer technology. The WWW has drastically changed the availability of electronically available information. However, this success and exponential growth has made it increasingly difficult to find, access, present, and maintain the information required by a wide variety of users. In response to this problem, many new research initiatives and commercial enterprises have been set up to enrich available information with machine processable semantics. Such support is essential for "bringing the web to its full potential". This semantic web will provide intelligent access to heterogeneous and distributed information, enabling software products (agents) to mediate between user needs and the information sources available. This paper summarizes ongoing research in the area of the semantic web especially focussing on ontology technology.

It acts as a global virtual shared space like middleware to enable communication and coordination of semantic data based on the principle of publish and read. This paper presents an overview of the work in progress under Austrian FIT-IT funded TSC project ( http://tsc.deri.at ). It presents the evolution of the TSC framework, overall architecture and its usage by Semantic Web Services. Triple Space Computing (TSC) ist ein neuartiges Kommunikations- und Koordinationsparadigma, welches aus einer Kombination von "Tuple Spaces" und Semantic Web-Technologien entstanden ist. Der global zugängliche virtuelle Space stellt eine Middleware zur Verfügung, welche es ermöglicht, semantische Daten via Publizieren und Lesen auszutauschen. In diesem Artikel wird die Entstehung und Entwicklung vom FIT-IT-Projekt TSC ( http://tsc.deri.at ) vorgestellt: die Rahmenbedingungen und Datenmodelle, eine Architektur und Anwendungsbeispiele im Zusammenhang mit Semantic Web Services.

On the other hand, software agents are envisioned as autonomous, proactive software entities that act on behalf its users according to a given agenda of goals. Software agents have been envisioned as potential user of semantic Web services in order to interact with semantic descriptions of SWS to autonomously discover, select, compose, invoke and execute the services based on user ...

Hence, they require an efficient support for communication and information sharing. Current Web technologies employed to build up these portals present serious limitations regarding information search, access, extraction, interpretation and processing. These limitations are naturally inherited by existing portals, thus hampering the communication and information sharing process between the community members. The application of Semantic Web technologies has the potential of overcoming these limitations and, therefore, these technologies can be used to evolve current Web portals into semantically enhanced Web portals. This paper presents the state of the art on the application of Semantic Web technologies to Web portals, points out the improvements achievable by the use of such technologies, and depicts requirements for future development of Semantic Web enabled Web portals. A wide coverage evaluation scheme and an evaluation criteria catalogue have been designed in order to consistently evaluate and compare existing Semantic Web portals.

Skeptics believe that developers make mistakes when annotating documents, and developers may even abuse annotations from time to time. Due to the difficulty of detecting and resolving deceptive tags, these skeptics openly wonder whether semantic annotations may bring more trouble than benefit.

Ontology itself is not a static model so that it must have the potential to capture changes of meanings and relations. There will not be A ontology in the world, therefore mapping and aligning ontology become essential for the future development of ontology area.

ORGANISING KEYWORDS IN A WEB SEARCH ENVIRONMENT: A METHODOLOGY BASED ON CO-WORD ANALYSIS Organising keywords in a web search environment: a methodology based on co-word analysis

Researchers have made several attempts to solve these problems. Thesauri and subject heading lists as traditional information retrieval tools have been criticised for their efficiency to tackle these newly emerging problems. This paper proposes an information retrieval tool generated by cocitation analysis, comprising keyword clusters with relationships based on the co-occurrences of keywords in the literature.

Integration of these sets creates large networks of information. We have previously described a tool called WENDI for aggregating information pertaining to new chemical compounds, effectively creating evidence paths relating the compounds to genes, diseases and so on.

The metaphor comprises four dimensions:(a) Discipline Self-dependence,(b) Knowledge Exports/Imports,(c) Scientific Trading Dynamics, and (d) Scientific Trading Impact. This framework is applied to a dataset of 221 Web of Science subject categories.
