The purpose of this study is to identify and present the solution to the problems of KORMARC on Disc, which was produced by the National Library of Korea and is being distributed nationwide. Currently, KORMARC on Disc has reached the serious level of duplicates of input record, error on input data and noise of retrieval. Futhermore, input data is not in accordance with KORMARC Rules for Descriptive Cataloging, thus generating many problems. Of all thing, since current MARC system itself is based on manual system, it does not correspond effectively to the online environment. Accordingly, in order to elevate the quality of KORMARC database, current problems must be resolved, at the same time, korea Machine Readable Cataloging must be modified into a format, more suitable to Machine Readable environment. Consequently, the current study analyzes and identifies problems of data in KORMARC on Disc, at the same time, it examines currently used KORMARC Format and Korea machine Readable Cataloging Rules for descriptive Cataloging as to provide easier usage and guidelines for accurate data inputs.

Our research goal has been the development of a domain independent natural language processing (NLP) system suitable for information retrieval. As part of that research, we have investigated ways to automatically extend the semantics of a lexicon derived from machine-readable lexical sources. This paper details the extraction of thematic roles derived from lexical patterns in a machine-readable dictionary.

Logistics movement using ships has been used for many centuries, but maritime accidents are still difficult to predict and they occur on a large scale. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) made it mandatory to install Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) for safe seas, but S-57 standards applied to equipment were not updated over 30 years. In addition, it is difficult to keep the equipment up-to-date and revise standards as ships move around the world. In consideration of the limitations of S-57, the IHO developed the new standard as S-100 rather than an update of the S-57. In this study, the previously developed S-100 tool and S/W were configured as one platform and applied to the S-100 ECDIS. The platform conducts as the S-100 cycle and ecosystem from the creation of standards to release and practical use in ships. The hydrographic information standard is machine-readable as defined in S-100, and it has been validated that the latest standard can be applied using the Plug and Play (PnP) function without software system updates. It is expected that international organization such as the International Hydrographic Office (IHO) and the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) shall develop and release standards and mariners can easily apply the latest standards to equipment through the machine-readable platform.

In this paper, we propose an approach to generate machine readable context annotations for SPARQL Results. According to W3C Recommendations, the retrieved data from RDF or OWL data sources are represented in tabular form, in which each cell's data is described by only type and value. The simple query result form is generally useful, but it is not sufficient to explain the semantics of the data in query results. To explain the meaning of the data, appropriate annotations must be added to the query results. In this paper, we generate the annotations from the basic graph patterns in user's queries. We could also manipulate the original queries to complete the annotations. The generated annotations are represented using the RDFa syntax in our study. The RDFa expressions in HTML are machine-understandable. We believe that our work will improve the trustworthiness of query results and contribute to distribute the data to meet the vision of the Semantic Web.

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.

In the era of big data, analyzing not only structured data but also unstructured data is emerging as an important task. Official documents produced by government agencies are also subject to big data analysis as large text-based unstructured data. From the perspective of internal work efficiency, knowledge management, records management, etc, it is necessary to analyze big data of public documents to derive useful implications. However, since many of the public documents currently held by public institutions are not in open format, a pre-processing process of extracting text from a bitstream is required for big data analysis. In addition, since contextual metadata is not sufficiently stored in the document file, separate efforts to secure metadata are required for high-quality analysis. In conclusion, the current official documents have a low level of machine readability, so big data analysis becomes expensive.

One of the major problems on the design of an online database for machine readable data file is on the implementation of MARC format for communication with the Library of Congress or OCLC. Most of the cataloging data to make manual card catalogs are stored on magnetic tapes based on the MARC format at LC or OCLC and are sent to local libraries. Therefore, local libraries can avoid the expensive process of cataloging for the books they own. Instead, they can retrieve the necessary cataloging information from the tape and print out manual card catalogs. A problem with MARC is that it is not designed for databases, but for portability to be read at any type of computer. Therfore, it is not practical to use the format on the development of an online database as long as the database is developed in conjunction with a commercial powerful database package. In this paper a possible methodology to resolve the conflicts between the objective of DBMS and MARC is discussed. It is to satisfy the requirements from a commercial DBMS while leaving a room for MARC to communicate with LC and OCLC.

Authority control enables us to retrieve information accurately by coordination and cross reference of headings. It is considered that authority control is needed in machine readable catalogs as well as in conventional catalogs. Taylor, Maxwell and Frost divided automated authority control systems into major vendor and network systems then available into two groups. The first group was defined as a system that processes a library's machine readable catalogs on the tape against an automated authority file. The second group offers an online access to catalogs and authority records. This group was further subdivided into linked or integrated systems and unlinked systems. If authority work is shared with many libraries the costs can be considerably reduced and the quality of catalog data base can be controled by standardization of headings used in participating libraries. The NACO is a project for sharing of authority records started in 1977 by L.C. And LSP furthers the ability to share authority records. A project as the NACO is necessary not only in America but also in the other countries The responsible organizations for national bibliographies of the countries must take much interest in these matters.
