The Korean food, which has been attracting attention only as a unique culture of Korea, has become popular in the world market by being used as a material of Korean Wave and me-media. The systematic organization of knowledge for recipes and related information can highlight the value of Korean food. It will serve as a basis for improving the reusability of Korean food contents through expanded and limited search and effective browsing. This study purports to design an ontology for establishing Korean food knowledge structure. Ontology modeling is based on OWL. Vocabularies of Korean food were examined based on 32 volumes of Korean food information, and data elements were extracted by analyzing five domains and applications. As a result, the study derived classes and properties, and proposed an indexing example.

Current ontology studies use the Hadoop distributed storage framework to perform map-reduce algorithm-based reasoning for scalable ontologies. In this paper, however, we propose a novel approach for scalable Web Ontology Language (OWL) Horst Lite ontology reasoning, based on distributed cluster memories. Rule-based reasoning, which is frequently used for scalable ontologies, iteratively executes triple-format ontology rules, until the inferred data no longer exists. Therefore, when the scalable ontology reasoning is performed on computer hard drives, the ontology reasoner suffers from performance limitations. In order to overcome this drawback, we propose an approach that loads the ontologies into distributed cluster memories, using Spark (a memory-based distributed computing framework), which executes the ontology reasoning. In order to implement an appropriate OWL Horst Lite ontology reasoning system on Spark, our method divides the scalable ontologies into blocks, loads each block into the cluster nodes, and subsequently handles the data in the distributed memories. We used the Lehigh University Benchmark, which is used to evaluate ontology inference and search speed, to experimentally evaluate the methods suggested in this paper, which we applied to LUBM8000 (1.1 billion triples, 155 gigabytes). When compared with WebPIE, a representative mapreduce algorithm-based scalable ontology reasoner, the proposed approach showed a throughput improvement of 320% (62k/s) over WebPIE (19k/s).

As defense science and technology are developing, smart weapons are being developed continually. The collection and analysis of the future strategic weapon information from all over the world have become a greater priority because information sharing became active. So, a system to manage and analyze heterogeneous defense intelligence is required. Semantic Web is the next generation knowledge information management technology for integrating, searching and navigating heterogeneous knowledge resource. Recently, Semantic Web is wildly being used in intelligent information management system. Semantic Web supports the analysis with the high reliability because it supports the simple keyword search as well as the semantic based information retrieval. In this paper, we propose the semantic web based multi-dimensional information analysis system on the national defense weapons that constructs ontology for various weapons information such as weapon specifications, nations, manufacturers and technologies and searches and analyses the specific weapon based on ontology. The proposed system supports the semantic search and multi-dimensional information analysis based on the relations between weapon specifications. Also, our system improves the efficiency on acquiring smart weapon information because it is developed with ontology based on military experts' knowledge and various web documents related with various weapons and intelligent search service.

We in this paper proposed a distinction method to compare objects in the Korean medicine ontology. Comparing same and different information between two objects, two scenarios to use our system were designed and implemented. One is the distinction of formulas, medicinal materials, and acupuncture points and the other is the distinction of effects, treatments, and symptoms. To compare objects easily, the decomposition of effects and treatments and the processing of medicinal materials were provided. Also, information of each object was shown through the link to the semantic search system. Our distinction method and system could be helpful to compare and distinct two objects in the diagnosis systems or search systems of Korean medicine information.

In this paper, we proposed one of the methods for building thesaurus in Science & Technology domain and investigated its applicability as an inference service based on ontology. There exist as many building methods for thesaurus as its role and function, and actually many thesauri capable of ensuring the accuracy and efficiency in information search are being built by many experts. After examining the previous studies related to the principles of building thesaurus and relevant concept "facet", we focused on its characteristics and applied it to building thesaurus. The facet is classified into 2 categories, conceptual facet and relational facet. The latter contains 3 subcategories: category relational facet, attribute relational facet and thematic relational facet. The thesaurus for Science & Technology domain using facets can be applied as a web-based inference service. As a result, the three types of inference service, COP(Communities of Practice), Researcher Tracing and Research Map are provided by means of ontology, and can be applied for the Query Expansion.

Knowledge which is represented by formal logic are widely used in many domains such like artificial intelligence, information retrieval, e-commerce and so on. And for medical field, medical documentary records retrieval, information systems in hospitals, medical data sharing, remote treatment and expert systems need knowledge representation technology. To retrieve information intellectually and provide advanced information services, systematically controlled mechanism is needed to represent and share knowledge. Importantly, medical expert's knowledge should be represented in a form that is understandable to computers and also to humans to be applied to the medical information system supporting decision making. And it should have a suitable and efficient structure for its own purposes including reasoning, extendability of knowledge, management of data, accuracy of expressions, diversity, and so on. we call it ontology which can be processed with machines. We can use the ontology to represent traditional medicine knowledge in structured and systematic way with visualization, then also it can also be used education materials. Hence, the authors developed an Shanghanlun ontology by way of showing an example, so that we suggested a methodology for ontology development and also a model to structure the traditional medical knowledge. And this result can be used for student to learn Shanghanlun by graphical representation of it's knowledge. We analyzed the text of Shanghanlun to construct relational database including it's original text, symptoms and herb formulars. And then we classified the terms following some criterion, confirmed the structure of the ontology to describe semantic relations between the terms, especially we developed the ontology considering visual representation. The ontology developed in this study provides database showing fomulas, herbs, symptoms, the name of diseases and the text written in Shanghanlun. It's easy to retrieve contents by their semantic relations so that it is convenient to search knowledge of Shanghanlun and to learn it. It can display the related concepts by searching terms and provides expanded information with a simple click. It has some limitations such as standardization problems, short coverage of pattern(證), and error in chinese characters input. But we believe this research can be used for basic foundation to make traditional medicine more structural and systematic, to develop application softwares, and also to applied it in Shanghanlun educations.

Bulletin board systems have evolved to support diverse multimedia data as well as text. However, current board systems have an weakness : it takes much time and efforts for users to figure out contents of articles. Most board systems provide a searching function with lexical level data access for solving that problem, however it fails to serve users' intented searching results. Moreover, it is nearly impossible to search proper articles if they contain multimedia data. This paper proposed a bulletin board system adopting the Semantic Web to solve this issue. The proposed system provides users with new ontology which is used for describing articles' domain knowledge and multimedia features. Users can describe their own board ontology using the proposed ontology. To support semantic-based searching for diverse domain knowledge without modification of the system, the system dynamically generated input/query interface and RDF data access module according to the board ontology written by administrators. The proposed board system shows that semantic-based searching is feasible and effective for users to find their intended articles.

Researches of current information searching focus on providing personalized results as well as matching needed queries in an enormous amount of information. This paper aims at discovering hidden knowledge to provide personalized and inferred search results based on the ontology with categorized concepts and relations among data. The current searching occasionally presents too much redundant information or offers no matching results from large volumes of data. To lessen this disadvantages in the information searching, we propose an inference algorithm that supports associated and inferred searching through the Jess engine based on the OWL ontology constraints and knowledge expressed by SWRL with association rules. After constructing the personalized preference ontology for domains such as restaurants, gas stations, bakeries, and so on, it shows that new knowledge information generated from the ontology and the rules is provided with an example of the domain of gas stations.

With the development of information technology, knowledge information-oriented and information systems are being rapidly paced. In addition, doctor's needs of the system that assist decision making is gradually increasing. Because the complex process of decision-making should be a lot. We propose a web based system for supporting medical treatment based on Korean medicine ontology. There are three kinds of processes. First, a pattern is decided for patient' symptoms, a formula for the pattern is selected and medicinal materials constituting the formula is added or removed. Second, a formula is decided for patient' symptoms, medicinal materials constituting the formula is added or removed. Third, a Treat method is decided for patient' symptoms, medicinal materials constituting the formula is added or removed. We have designed and implemented the clinical decision support system that supports flexible processes and necessary information and functions. The system shows the appropriate form of ontology knowledge as interrelated and provide analysis and processing, does not show simply search. The system is one of the systems utilizing ontology and a web based system that can be used in anywhere. Therefore, This system Will be useful as for doctors to make decision.

Semantic Web is getting popular to next web environment. Additionally, ontology language research is also activating to represent semantic relation of resource in semantic web. Specially, Ontology language as RDF and DAML+OIL appear on start point of research. But Ontology Language limited to describing characters of resource and to making a clear definition of relation of resource. So W3C suggest OWL at the next standard language for describing resource. OWL supply the lack of representation for RDF and RDF Schema. In this paper, we make Ontology to implement Online Retrieval System using OWL and propose the structure of storing Ontology document at the RDB. The structure support characters of OWL that are equivalent relationship, heterogeneous relationship, inverse relationship, union relationship and one of relationship between classes or properties. In this paper, we classify the extended elements for OWL from RDF Schema. And we propose the method of storing OWL using RDB for interoperability with many applications based on RDB. Finally, implement the storage and retrieval system based on OWL to provide advanced search function.
