This paper describes the major components of ISO/IEC 11179 metadata registry (MDR) standard designed to promote data interoperability between systems, explains and discusses semantic web technology and Web ontology languages initiated by W3C that can be employed to further enhance data interoperability, and finally proposes a framework for a new RDF/OWL-based MDR to convert from the current human-readable MDR to machine-readable MDR. If the new MDR is successful, we might be able to offer a better customized information service to users. The future research will be concerned with evaluating objectively the effectiveness of machine-readable MDR in meeting the needs of real users.

차세대 웹 기술인 시맨틱 웹(Semantic Web)이 각광을 받음에 따라, 시맨틱 웹과 관련된 다양한 기술들이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 특히, 시맨틱 웹의 핵심 사례인 링크드 데이터(Linked Data)는 웹으로 접근 가능한 형태의 URI로 시맨틱 데이터를 표현하고 서로 연결함으로써, 오픈 데이터로서 상호운용성 극대화 및 데이터의 통합을 용이하게 한다. 이는 바이오인포매틱스 기술 발전과 결합하여 웹에서 바로 이용 가능한 많은 의학 링크드 데이터 생산과 이를 활용한 다양한 의학용어 검색 서비스 개발 결과를 가져왔다. 하지만, 기존 의학용어 검색 서비스들은 각 기관이 보유하고 있는 의학정보를 기반으로 서비스되기 때문에 다양하고 정확한 정보를 얻기 위해서는 많은 시간과 노력을 투자해야 한다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 척추 분야 의학 관련 링크드 데이터를 활용해 정확도가 높고 확장이 용이한 척추정보 검색 서비스를 제안한다.

There have been various attempts of Knowledge Management System in order to effectively support Knowledge Process and to manage a wide variety of unstructured knowledge. However, Knowledge Management System basically has some significant weakness for searching knowledge, extracting information and maintenance, and some difficulties to integrate such various knowledge resources. Several studies had been conducted to overcome these weaknesses and to improve the method of knowledge management. The purpose of this study is 1) to examine the effectiveness of Semantic Web Technology that has a great attention lately; whether it is useful to overcome the weaknesses, and 2) to review its strong points and some future uses. Further, differences of Semantic Web Technology compared to existing Knowledge Management System Architecture are reviewed. Finally, a new Semantic Web Enabled KMS Architecture is proposed. Also some prospects for future market direction are suggested.

Researches on enhancing the searching function of the web service using the ontology concept have been studying. One of them suggests a searching method for UDDI using DAML and DAML+OIL. However this approach has inconveniences to use operations proper to the circumstance and to define respective ontologies according to them. To solve these problems, we introduce an effective method of dealing with N-Triple, filtering care Triples, merging Triples, semantic connection between Triples and searching Triples for searching information and recommending the results in semantic web environment. Furthermore, we implement this proposed method in a system to test it. Finally, we test the system in the virtual semantic web environment for out research analysis.

Recently with advent of Web 2.0, RESTful Web Services are becoming increasing trend to emphasize Web as platform. There are already many services and the number of service increases in very fast pace. So it is difficult to find the service what we want by keyword based search. To solve this problem, we developed the search method using sem antic technologies about RESTful Web Services. For that, first we define the system structure and model the description format based on the integrated search system for OpenAPIs, and then we add Semantic Markup (tagging, semantic annotation) on the HTML description pages. Next we extract RDF document from them and store it in service repository. Based on the keywords that are extended by means of ontology, the developed system provides more purified and extended results than similarity-based keyword searching system.

Recently, the semantic web stands out in the next generation web. To realize the semantic web, the metadata integration is required between different metadatas on the web for metadata management. Otherwise, the integrated structure is needed to accommodate all of semantic, syntax and structure. RDF is one of the core technology and is more efficient framework for technology and interchange of metadata in the web, In this paper, for metadata management, we designed and implemented the RDF authoring system which converts each of metadata into RDF and makes it easy to manipulate and manage the different metadatas. For this, we researched about the RDF creation using Dublin Core metadata, the conversion of XML document into RDF, the RDF expression by N-Triple form and the integration of WSDL and RDF, and implemented the system on the lava platform. Basically, users using this system can integrate and manage metadatas easily even if they are not expert.

Cyber-infrastructures for scientific and engineering applications require integrating heterogeneous legacy data in different formats and from various domains. Such data integration raises challenging issues: (1) Support for multiple independently-managed schemas, (2) Ease of schema evolution, and (3) Simple schema mappings. In order to address these issues, we propose a novel approach to semantic integration of scientific data which uses XML schemas and RDF-based schema mappings. In this approach, XML schema al-lows scientists to manage data models intuitively and to use commodity XML DBMS tools. A simple RDF-based ontological representation scheme is used for only structural relations among independently-managed XML schemas from different institutes or domains We present the design and implementation of a prototype system developed for the national cyber-environments for civil engi-neering research activities in Korea (similar to the NEES project in USA) which is called KOCEDgrid (http://www.koced.net).

Research is being made for users' convenient access to services such as personalized data and contents services. The use of information and the fusion of services in various devices and terminals suggest the necessity to know what personalization mechanism is used to provide high quality contents at a time and place desired by users. Existing mechanisms are not easy to be handled by other service providers because each service provider has different preference and personal information, and are very inconvenient because service users have to set up and manage by themselves. Thus, the present paper proposes a Semantic User Profiles Manager based on OSGi, middleware for the provision and extension of semantic services, in order to manage users' profiles dynamically regardless of service provider. In addition, this paper defines a personalized semantic profile that enables user profiling, ontological domain modeling and semantic reasoning. In order to test the validity of this paper, we implemented semantic profiles into a bundle running based on OSGi. When users enter the range of the service area and use various devices, the semantic service matches in correspondence with semantic user profiles. The proposed system can easily extend the matching of services to user profiles and matching between user profiles or between services.

Knowledge management is a core factor to achieve competitive advantage and improve the business performance. New information technology is also a core factor enabling the innovation of knowledge management. Semantic Web of which the goal is to realize machine-processable Web can't help affecting the knowledge management. Therefore, we empirically analyze the relationship between user's dissatisfaction and barriers or limitations of knowledge management and present methods allowing Semantic Web to overcome the limitations and to support knowledge management processes. Based on a questionnaire survey of 222 respondents, we found that the limitations of system qualities such as user inconvenience of knowledge management systems, search and integration limitations, and the limitations of knowledge qualities such as inappropriateness and untrust significantly affected the user dissatisfaction of knowledge management systems. Finally, we suggest a conceptual model of knowledge management systems of which components are resources, metadata, ontologies, and user & query layers.

최근 들어서 생물학, 건설, 토목, 의학, 화학, 항공 등 다양한 과학 분야에서 효율적인 공동 연구를 돕기 위해서 그리드 기반 데이터 통합을 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 각 분야에서 사용하는 이질적인 형식의 데이터를 원활히 통합하는 것은 매우 어려운 문제이다. 이러한 측면에서, XML은 이질적인 시스템 간 데이터 공유의 수단으로서 광범위하게 사용되고 있으나, 데이터를 의미적으로 통합하는데 에는 한계가 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서, 본 논문에서는 그리드 환경에서 XML Schema 에 기반을 둔 이질적인 데이터 소스들을 의미적으로 통합하고 검색하는 방법으로서 RDF/RDFS 기반의 온톨리지 매핑을 통한 통합 검색 방안을 제안한다. 우리가 제안하는 방법은 특히 데이터를 XML Schema를 이용해서 표현하기 때문에 원래 데이터소스에 대한 수정 없이도, XML Schema 기반의 구조적 검색뿐 아니라, 온톨로지 기반의 의미적인 데이터 통합 및 검색을 가능하게 한다. 우리는 이 방법을 토목 분야의 시스템에 적용하여 검증하였다.
