Annotation: the main problems of ontological knowledge management for Web are analyzed, e.g. the problem of integration of knowledge from different sources, knowledge acquisition and knowledge retrieval for specific task. Methods of automated generation of metadata described the semantics of informational resources and for personalized search on base of thesauri and ontologies of user subject d...

A new breed of engineering design tools are electronic design notebooks, which are electronic versions of the traditional engineer’s logbook. They capture design information as it is generated, providing a rich, unfiltered history of a design project. This presents great potential for accessing past design decisions and rationale. This paper examines ways of searching for design information by ...

For the CRISs to be effective the notion of controlled vocabulary shared by a community is central. Structuring of controlled vocabularies, including taxonomies, thesauri and ontologies has been studied for many years. In this paper we shall investigate the use of one such method of defining controlled vocabularies; thesauri. We compare approaches which have been proposed for expressing such co...

We introduce the Thesaurus Management Tool (TMT) PoolParty based on Semantic Web standards that reduces the effort to create and maintain thesauri by utilizing Linked Open Data (LOD), text-analysis and easy-to-use GUIs. PoolParty’s aim is to lower the access barriers to managing thesauri, so domain experts can contribute to thesaurus creation without needing knowledge about the Semantic Web. A ...
