Some Korean terminologies on reproductive structures of seed plants in plant morphology, written incorrectly in many books, were analysed to propose accurately expressed terminologies. 31 books in areas such as general biology, plant biology, plant morphology, and biological dictionaries and glossaries were selected to analyse the accuracy of the terminologies for reproductive structures in gymnosperms, e.g., cone or strobilus, seed (or ovulate) cone and pollen cone, and conifer(s) or coniferous plants, and for flower structures in angiosperms, e.g., corolla, anther, filament, pistillate (or female) flower and staminate (or male) flower, apocarpous, and syncarpous. The definition and etymology of the terminologies were traced in 4 textbooks of plant anatomy and 2 dictionaries of biology and botany written in English. On the basis of the definition, etymology, and principles for terminology formation according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 704:2000), reasonably expressed Korean terminologies were proposed. All of the 8 terminologies examined in this study were included in the glossary of biological terminologies, published by the Korean Association of Biological Sciences in 2005, and designated as an editorial source for science and biology textbooks for middle and high schools by Ministry of Education in 2007. However, the only 1 of the 8 terminologies described in the glossary were consistent with the proposed expression in the present study. These inconsistencies indicated the need for a reassessment of this glossary of biological terminologies. The newly proposed terminologies would facilitate mutual understanding between teachers and students of plant biology.

Korean terminologies on stem structures in plant morphology, written incorrectly in many books, were analysed to propose accurately expressed terminologies. 35 books in areas such as general biology, plant biology, plant morphology, and biological dictionaries and glossaries were selected to analyse the accuracy of the terminologies for seed structures, e.g., shoot and shoot system, rhizome, apical dominance, anticlinal and periclinal divisions, and intercalary and lateral meristems. The definition and etymology of the terminologies were traced in 4 textbooks of plant anatomy and 2 dictionaries of biology and botany written in English. On the basis of the definition, etymology, and principles for terminology formation according to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 704:2000), reasonably expressed Korean terminologies were proposed. All of the 8 terminologies examined in this study were included in the glossary of biological terminologies, published by the Korean Association of Biological Sciences in 2005, and designated as an editorial source for science and biology textbooks for middle and high schools by Ministry of Education in 2007. However, the only 1 of the 8 terminologies described in the glossary were consistent with the proposed expression in the present study. These inconsistencies indicated the need for a reassessment of this glossary of biological terminologies. The validity of the proposed Korean terminologies was tested in a questionnaire sent to 17 professors teaching plant morphology or/and taxonomy at universities. A mean of 91.9% of the total respondents agreed with the Korean expressions proposed in this study. The new, proposed terminologies would facilitate mutual understanding between teachers and students of plant biology.

This study describes the Bottom-up method for implementation of an ontology system from the RDB. The STNet, a structured terminology glossary based on RDB, was served as a test bed for converting to RDF ontology, for generating the inference rules, and for evaluating the results of the semantic search. We have used protege editor of the ontology developing tool to design ontologies with test data. We also tested the designed ontology with the Inference Engine (Pellet) of protege editor. The generated reference rules were tested by TBox and SPARQL queries through STNet ontology. The results of test show that the generated reference rules were verified as true and STNet ontology were also evaluated to be useful for searching the complex combination of semantic relation.

Power system technologies in the area of smart grid are being converged with communication system technologies or information technologies(IT). This interdisciplinary action affects on two parts vigorously so that IT has become a essential part of power industry. But terminologies of two parts are confused and it is necessary that these are standardized to develop the industry. The writing system of the Open Korean Knowledge Dictionary for standardization of smart grid terminologies which are IEC TC 57 glossary and non-glossary is proposed. The writing system includes the process of collection, writing guideline and standardization of terminologies. Writing results of 90,000 terminologies for electricity, communication and computer fields including smart grid terminologies, which are registered in the Open Korean Knowledge Dictionary, are shown. The system provides the capability of collection and delivery of academic society opinions for the selected and interpreted terminologies through the internet for standardization and industry propagation of smart grid terminologies.

Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), a medical thesaurus created by the National Library of Medicine (NLM), is a useful resource for natural language processing (NLP). In this article, the current status of the Japanese version of Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) is reviewed. Online investigation found that Japanese-English dictionaries, which assign MeSH information to applicable terms, but use them for NLP, were found to be difficult to access, due to license restrictions. Here, we investigate an open-source Japanese-English glossary as an alternative method for assigning MeSH IDs to Japanese terms, to obtain preliminary data for NLP proof-of-concept.

우리 학회에서는 최근에 폐탄광지 복구에 관한 관심이 고조되고 있으며, 특히 금년내 적당한 시기에, 되도록 빠른 시일 안에 폐탄광지 복구에 관한 국제 심포지엄을 개최할 계획을 가지고 있으나, 아직 학회 설립이후 이 분야에 관한 연구활동이 다소 일천하므로 기초자료준비가 미진한 상태에 있는 현실이다. 이러한 현실적인 상황하에서 필자는 학회의 회장으로서 학회와 회원들의 연구활동지원을 위한 기초적인 자료라도 수집 제공해야 되겠다는 취지를 가지고 이런 저런 일을 진행하고 있다. 이와 같은 학회활동의 하나로 우선 지난 5월 15일부터 20일까지 중국 북경시 신대도(新大都)호텔에서 중국토지학회(中國土地學會) 중국토지부간학회(中國土地復墾學會) 주최로 개최된 "북경 국제토지부간학술연토회(北京 國際土地復墾學術硏討會)" 심포지엄(Beijing International Symposium on Land Reclamation ISLR 2000 - Mine Land Reclamation and Ecological Restoration for 21st Century)에 참석하여 국제적인 상황을 파악할 수 있도록 한 바 있다. 또한 한국의 "폐탄광지역의 산림훼손지 복구 및 폐석유실 방지대책에 관한 고찰" 원고를 우리 학회지에 투고 게재하여 우리 나라의 폐탄광지 복구에 대한 현황을 개략적으로 이해할 수 있도록 하고저 한다. 이와 같은 일을 하다보니, 우리 학회에서도 석탄광산에 관한 전문용어를 파악해야 되겠다는 필요성에 따라서 우선 필자가 가지고 있는 제반 용어자료(참고문헌 제시)를 종합적으로 정리하여 이 용어집을 발표하고자 한다. 이 "소고(小考)" 용어집은 시기적으로 우리 학회 회원들의 필요성에 의해서 편집된 "초고(草稿)" 수준이며, 약 860 용어가 영문 국문(ABC순)/국문 영문(ㄱㄴㄷ순)으로 편집되었다. 이 용어집은 장차 우리 학회에서 용어제정의 기회가 있을 때에는 귀중한 표준 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 이 용어집은 우리 학회 제정 표준용어집이 아니라 단순히 필자의 연구자료(안)로 보아야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to verify the correlation between the appearance frequency of author keyword and the number of citation in journal articles. In this study, we were trying to develop a methodology that can select the term having semantic relation with other terms and higher utilization to build a structured scientific glossary. In order to achieve this purpose, we analyzed the number of citation and the author keyword of the humanities and social science journal articles of the Korea Citation Index (KCI) from 2007 to 2011. This study found a correlation between appearance frequency of author keyword and the number of citation of the journal articles, with higher appearance frequency of author keyword of the journal articles being more cited.

This article set out to develop an old Chinese - modern Korean collated terminology by analyzing and paralleling Chinese-Korean translational terms relevant to Korean medicine at a minimum meaning unit from "Eonhaegugeupbang", "Eonhaetaesanjipyo" and "Eonhaetaesanjipyo". Those are composed of original Chinese texts and their subsequent corresponding Korean translations. It tries to make a list of translational standards of Korean medicine terms by classifying the cases of translational ambiguity in terms of disease, body position, thumbnail-pressing acupuncture method, and disease-curing method. The above-mentioned ancient books are medical classics written by Huh Jun, the representative medical physician, and published by the Joseon government. Thus, they are appropriate enough as historically legitimate medical documents, from which are drawn out words and terms to form an old Chinese - modern Korean collation dictionary. This collation glossary will contribute to the increased relevance of data ming, or information retrieval. in a database system and information search engine of massive Korean medical records, by means of providing a novel way to obtaining synchronized results between the original writings of old Chinese and the secondary translated ones of modern Korean. The glossary will promote the collective but consistent translation of numerous old archives of Korean medicine and in other related fields as well.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the terms used in the Information Boards of Geosites at Jeonbuk West Coast National Geopark. Among the terms used in the Information Boards, nouns were extracted and listed based on the Standard Korean Language Dictionary, a glossary of earth and the data for the development of textbooks according to the 2015 revision of curriculum, by which eight types were classified. Seventy-one nouns (10.8%) of the extracted terms were not listed in any glossary. Most of these terms were compound words derived by combining [noun]+[noun] or [noun]+[affix] so that they were not easy to comprehend. In addition, two hundred fifty-six nouns (46%) of the terms were identified as jargons used in specific disciplines. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that when creating the National Geopark Information Boards, the academic jargon embedded terminologies be explained with annotation for general public visitors and students to understand without difficulty.

A user can use resources on the Semantic Web using a Semantic Web browser. In order to utilize the functions of Semantic Web browsers in education, we compared the functions of well-known Semantic Web browsers such as Tabulator, Contextual Search Browser (CSB), Magpie, and Piggy Bank. In order to utilize Semantic Web browsers in education, a user needs to understand the features of each Semantic Web browser and our work can help both teachers and students. Tabulator is an RDF browser that can help to check whether resources can be used for learning and relevance of resources. CSB can be used to search educational resources using a conrtext file that contains the subjects of learning. It can also help learning by showing semantic web resources in the form of triple set as well as by supporting highlighting function. Magpie can help learners without basic knowledge on learning materials by providing interpretation based on a glossary file and related background knowledge. Piggy Bank supports conversion of web resources into semantic web resources and allows to browse semantic web resources in various views as well as to share semantic web resources.
