OntoFM: A Personal Ontology-based File Manager for the Desktop
نویسندگان
چکیده
Personal ontologies have been proposed as a means to support the semantic management of user information. Assuming that a personal ontology system is in use, new tools have to be developed at user interface level to exploit the enhanced capabilities offered by the system. In this work, we present an ontology-based file manager that allows semantic searching on the user’s personal information space. The file manager exploits the ontology relations to present files associated with specific concepts, proposes new related concepts to users, and helps them explore the information space and locate the required file.

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 ...
متن کاملVENNFS: A Venn-Diagram File Manager
In this paper we present a prototypal file manager, VENNFS, that is designed to overcome some of the limitations of the current desktop interfaces, that are strongly based on hierarchical file systems. VENNFS allows users to place documents and categories on a plane so that files may belong to multiple categories at once, where proximity on the plane can represent similarity and time filtering ...
