Ontology-Aware Search on XML-Based Electronic Medical Records

As the use of Electronic Medical Records EMRs becomes more widespread, so does the need for effective information discovery on them.

O'Reilly and Spivack grapple with the Webs

I've really enjoyed the recent flow of posts between Talis Platform Advisory Group member Nova Spivack and (not yet a member!) Tim O'Reilly. Through them it's possible to see some of the complex interrelationships between aspects of 'Web 2.0' and the more pragmatic areas of 'Semantic Web' development. 'Web 3.0'...

OPAS: An Ontology-Based Library Help Desk Service

This paper argues that ontological knowledge technologies can be utilized in authoring question-answer services. To ease the content indexer's work, the paper proposes a system that provides semi-automatic semantic indexing for annotating question-answer pairs, case-based reasoning techniques for finding similar questions and integration of external information sources via ontologies. A...

Towards Semantic Services for Sensor-Rich Information Systems

This paper describes the architecture and programming model of a semantic-service-oriented sensor information system platform. It is argued that the key to enabling scalable sensor information access is to define ontology and associated sensor information hierarchy for interpretation of raw data streams. The ontological abstraction allows a sensing system to...
