SMORE -Semantic Markup, Ontology, and RDF Editor

摘要

The promise of the Semantic Web is founded on the principle that online content will be semantically annotated, creating machine-understandable content using interlinking ontologies. In keeping with this principle, we introduce SMORE, the Semantic Markup, Ontology, and RDF Editor. It provides users with an integrated environment for creating web pages, email, and other online content while facilitating inline, seamless semantic markup. The rich features of SMORE extend its capabilities beyond that of other annotation tools available. For instance, in addition to combining content creation and annotation, SMORE allows users to mark up parts of images using SVG. Users also have a number of options to collect information from the web, including an advanced ontology search capability, web scraping, and a semantic Virtual portal that provides links to semantically related material. This, combined with the unique ability to defer markup using place holders, use and extend multiple ontologies, infer classification for ad hoc objects, and interlink concepts makes SMORE a unique tool that will benefit both users and the future of the semantic web.
