Semantics@Work

Editor: Raphael Volz

Abstract:
Semantic technologies typically take part in the challenge of managing the
massive amounts of information that we are facing today. A series of
standardization efforts, research and industrial projects have led to
semantic technologies that are mature enough to be part of business systems.
Fundamental to the creation and sustained operation of semantic systems is
successful ontology management. The 2008 state of the art of ontology
management with its key tasks ontology design, ontology evolution, ontology
mapping and ontology reasoning is presented in this book. This book is a
first result of the German Theseus project, funded by the German federal
ministry of economics and technology.
