In collaborative environment, since each agent generally uses different words for the same meaning, there is an obstacle for information sharing. In collaborative product development environment, each agent has different words for representing same product information. As a result, it is hard to share product information in this situation. For solving this problem, semantic-based product information is needed. In this paper, a ontology-based semantic searching system which is able to interact with legacy PDM systems is proposed for product information sharing in collaborative environment Product ontology is represented with OWL format, and the product ontology is processed by Pellet reasoning engine for semantic searching. The system is implemented as a web service which can be integrated with other systems. This paper also introduces the approach with which a PDM system provides a function of semantic search with this search system.

With the increasing demand for interoperability among existing learning resource systems in order to enable the sharing of learning resources, such resources need to be annotated with ontologies that use different metadata standards. These different ontologies must be reconciled through ontology mediation, so as to cope with information heterogeneity problems, such as semantic and structural conflicts. In this paper, we propose an ontology-mapping technique using Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL) to generate semantic mapping rules that integrate learning resources from different systems and that cope with semantic and structural conflicts. Reasoning rules are defined to support a semantic search for heterogeneous learning resources, which are deduced by rule-based inference. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach enables the integration of learning resources originating from multiple sources and helps users to search across heterogeneous learning resource systems.

The Semantic Web is leading us to a world of information sharing by enabling distributed knowledge aggregation and creation. RDF is the foundations of the Semantic Web. For secure Semantic web we need to secure RDF as well. Unauthorized access to an RDF document can change or damage its semantics or manipulate the relations between resources. This article includes the study of RDF security issues and analysis of the existing solutions. After finding limitations of existing solution, a hybrid approach has been proposed.

In this paper, we propose a semantic web approach for personalized book recommendation. Our approach takes advantage of the content-based recommendation and improves its disadvantage that users should input their interesting fields into all book search systems they use. Our approach provides the sharing of users' profile with their interesting fields by enabling user's interesting fields to be described over each book classification ontology of various book information providers. We also provide a middleware that manages users' profiles written in RDF and analizes similarity between user's interesting field and each concept over the book classification ontology. Our approach provide better performance than traditional keyword-based search by sharing the user's profile among book recommendation systems.

Increasing product variety based on product family and product platform provides a company with a competitive advantage over its competitors. As products become more complex, short-life cycled and customized, the design efforts require more knowledge-intensive, collaborative and coordinating efforts for information sharing. By sharing knowledge, information, component and process across different families of products, the product realization process will be more efficient, cost-effective and quick-responsive. Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is used for analyzing data and forming semantic structures that are formal abstractions of concepts of human thoughts. A Web Ontology Language (OWL) is designed for applications that need to process the content of information instead of simply presenting information to humans. OWL also captures the evolution of different components of the product family. The purpose of this paper is to develop product variety modeling to increase the usefulness of common platform. In constructing and analyzing product ontology, FCA is adopted for conceptual knowledge processing. For the selected product family, product variety Ontology is constructed and implemented using prot$\'{e}$g$\'{e}$-2000.

The current technological revolution pushes forward the innovation in the library information systems. This study proposes functional requirements and an architectural reference model of Semantic Library, recognized as a prototype of next-generation library information systems, that is a seamless convergence of the library information systems and the Internet technologies. Semantic Library can realize semantic interoperability and integration based on ontology and metadata, and also renovate information services for users with openness, sharing, participation and collaboration. Semantic Library will be effectively implemented by means of service-oriented architecture and the logical structure of FRBR. In this study, a reference model of Semantic Library consisting of 6 horizontal layers and 3 vertical elements is presented as a next-generation model of library information systems.

This study proposed the agent system for educational information sharing using bookmark. In order to search and share the educational information effectively, we designed DAML+OIL-typed bookmark information. Proposed system in this study had the P2P type based on Client-Server type. We implemented the bookmark agent that has the intelligent characteristics, that is, automatic categorization of peers and documents, autonomous communication between agents using DAML, and delicate information searching using the ontology dictionary in Semantic Web environment. Hereafter, this study will contribute to activate sharing and searching educational information as well as proposed system will offer the important technologies for SCORM-based e-learning environment.

멀티데이터베이스 시스템(multidatabase system)에서 여러 요소 데이터베이스(component database)에 대한 통합된 접근을 제공하기 위해서는 의미 이질성(semantic heterogeneity)이 탐색되고 해결되어져야 한다. 즉, 멀티데이터베이스 시스템은 각 요소 데이터베이스가 가지고 있는 정보의 의미를 이해하고 의미적으로 동등한 또는 유사한 정보들을 식별할 수 있어야 한다. 또한, 멀티데이터베이스 시스템은 사용자로 하여금 실세계의 동일한 정보를 가지고 있는 여러 다른 데이터베이스로부터 원하는 정보를 용이하게 획득할 수 있도록 해야 한다. 본 논문에서는, 요소 데이터베이스간의 의미 이질성을 탐색하고 해결하기 위하여 정보가 갖고 있는 개념간 의미관계에 기반한 의미망(semantic network)을 구축한다. 또한 의미질의어(semantic query language)를 제공하여 사용자가 스키마에 대한 사전 지식이 없이도 여로 자율적인 데이터베이스로부터 원하는 정보를 용이하게 획득 할 수 있도록 한다.

It has lately been recognized that the sharing and exchanging of the research results information is the critical factor to improve the research productivity. So many institutions are planning or developing the information systems which provide the research information services for researcher. But it has very difficulty in integrating the research resources information due to the dispersion and heterogeneity in data sources, and semantic and structural difference in describing data. We propose the semantic web based methodology and conceptual framework for raising the interoperability of metadata about research results information, which will support the integration of the distributed research data for information services in the end. Finally we proposed the conceptual architecture of research information service system which shows the main components, the functional requirements, and the principal and design direction at implementing the system.

The Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) specification enables sharing of diverse multimedia contents among different devices. Contents discovered via UPnP are organized using directory hierarchy. If there are multiple sources of content providers and if the directory becomes large, managing and searching of the shared contents can be difficult. In this paper, an enhanced contents searching method is proposed by using semantic annotations. UPnP metadata is expanded to include semantic annotations to enable natural contents searching.
