The semantic web holds promises for information organization and selective access, providing standard means for formulating and distributing metadata and ontologies. However, we miss a wide use of semantic web technologies on personal computers. The use of ontolo-gies, metadata annotations, and semantic web protocols on desktop computers will allow the integration of desktop applications and th...
متن کاملThe Semantic Desktop as a foundation for PIM research
Personal Information Management (PIM), both in science and in applications, is limited by the current approach to data management (files) and applications. The Semantic Web and the Resource Description Framework (RDF) provide a standardized way to represent data, across applications and capture the respective application semantics. In recent years we have developed the Semantic Desktop approach...
متن کاملSemantic Email as a Communication Medium for the Social Semantic Desktop
In this paper, we introduce a formal email workflow model based on traditional email, which enables the user to define and execute ad-hoc workflows in an intuitive way. This model paves the way for semantic annotation of implicit, well-defined workflows, thus making them explicit and exposing the missing information in a machine processable way. Grounding this work within the Social Semantic De...
متن کاملAn Overview of Information Management and Knowledge Work Studies: Lessons for the Semantic Desktop
Several recent initiatives aim to provide a Memex-inspired semantic desktop that would integrate with or replace our current physical and electronic desktop. For these semantic desktop initiatives to succeed, we need to consider how people organise their work and use their desktop. If we do not consider this existing work, the semantic desktop might very well suffer from the low adoption rate t...
متن کاملA Multi-Ontology Approach for Personal Information Management
The increasingly huge volume of personal information stored in a desktop computer is characterized by disparate models, unstructured contents, and implicit knowledge. Aiming at a semantic rich environment, a number of Semantic Desktop frameworks have been proposed, concentrating on different aspects, including organization, manipulation, and visualization of the data. In this paper, we propose ...
