최근 차세대 Web 기술로서 Semantic Web이 주목 받고 있다. Semantic Web에서는 Web상에 존재하는 문서에 Web Resource들에 대한 Ontology를 기반으로 Semantic Annotation을 하고 Ontology 추론 Agent를 통하여 의미 기반으로 Web을 검색할 수 있도록 해준다. 이와 같은 Semantic Web 기술의 핵심 요소는 Web Ontology이며 W3C에서는 이를 표현 할 수 있는 표준 언어로서 RDF기반의 OWL(Web Ontology Language) 명세를 제정하고 있다. 따라서 표준 Web Ontology 언어인 OWL을 위한 추론 시스템은 Semantic Web 검색 Agent의 구현을 위한 필수적인 기반 기술이라 할 수 있으나 아직 그 개발이 미비한 상태이다. OWL 추론 시스템을 구현하기 위해서는 OWL의 이론적인 기반을 제공하는 DL(Description Logic)을 추론할 수 있는 엔진을 사용하는 것이 한가지 방법이 될 수 있으나 OWL이 Rule과 같은 DL의 범주를 벗어나는 Vocabulary를 지원하는 언어로 확장되는 경우에 이를 처리하기가 어렵다. 또 다른 방법으로서 Logic Programming을 통하여 OWL 언어의 Semantic을 기술하고 정리 증명(Theorem Proving)을 통하여 Ontology를 추론하는 공리화(Axiomatisation) 기법이 있는데 이러한 방법의 장점은 기반이 되는 Logic의 범주 내에서 새로운 언어를 위한 Vocabulary의 확장이 용이하다는 점이다. 본 논문에서는 Axiomatisation 방법을 이용하여 OWL로 기술된 Ontology를 추론할 수 있는 시스템의 설계 및 구현에 대해 설명하기로 한다.

The advent of Semantic Web has generated several methods that can access the data on the web. Thus, it is necessary to handle the data by accessing the current web ontology as well as the existing knowledge base system. Web ontology languages are RDF(Resource Description Framework), DAML-OIL, OWL(Web Ontology Language), and so on. This paper presents the creation and the method of the ontology object model that can access, represent, and process the web ontology and the existing knowledge base. Unlike the existing access approach of web ontology using the model on memory constructed by each parser, we divide the model of web ontology into three layers such as frame-based ontology layer, generic ontology layer, and functional ontology layer. Generic ontology layer represents the common vocabulary among several domains and functional ontology layer contains the dependent vocabulary to each ontology respectively. Our model gets rid of the redundancy of the representation and enhances the reusability. Moreover, it can provide the easy representation of knowledge and the fast access of the model in the application.

Success of a semantic web application, currently base on web technology, depend on web ontology construction that provided rule and inference function about knowledge. For, this study compared the ontology construction methods that were already proposed, and analyzed, and investigated characteristics of semantic web and web ontology, investigated characteristics of semantic web and web ontology, and defined characteristics of web ontology as-based technology of a semantic web application and knowledge representation steps, and studied a technical element that related currently web technology, and proposed a web ontology construction method for a semantic web application with bases to these. Established web ontologies of various knowledge fields as applied the construction method that proposed. Also evaluate performance of web ontology through inference verification of web ontologies established, web ontologies evaluated performance of web ontology as used inference verification. According to this, we confirmed that proposed construction method that can establish the ontology suitable for semantic web application.

Recently, as the Geospatial Web is combined with the Semantic Web in order to keep pace with the recent trends of information technology emphasizing interoperability, intelligence and individualization, the Geo Semantic Web was proposed, which is an intelligent geographical information Web service technology that can provide users with suitable information by connecting and integrating various types of spatial information and extensive aspatial information on the Web efficiently. For the Geo Semantic Web service, we need to develop Geo Ontology processing technologies that enable computers to process knowledge and information scattered around in the Web environment automatically. However, standards for Geo Ontology processing technologies have nod been established yet, and standardization organizations and various groups and agencies are conducting relevant studies. This paper analyzed various base theories and technologies related to Geo Ontology and developed a Geo Semantic Web system. The Geo Semantic Web system comprises Query Processing Manager that analyzes and processes Geo Semantic queries and manages sessions, Ontology Manager that generates and queries Geo Ontology and extracts spatial/aspatial data, and Clients. Finally, this paper proved the utility of the Geo Semantic Web system by applying it to a hypothetical scenario where Geo Semantic queries are required.

This paper proposes an ontology population model based on ISO/IEC 11179. Much research has recently been done on harmonizing Web 2.0 and the Semantic Web, and the harmonization is defined as Web 3.0. The most important issues for realizing Web 3.0 include defining ontology schemas and populating instances for ontologies. To resolve the issue, Web ontology schemas should be precisely defined, and a method for populating Web ontology from Web resources should be developed. This paper proposes a Web ontology population model based on ISO/IEC 11179 - Metadata Registry (MDR), which is the international standard, developed to manage and use common standard concepts.

Current web search includes a lot of different results with information that user does not want, because it searches information using keyword mapping. Ontology can describe the correct meaning of web resource and relationships between web resources. And we can extract suitable information that user wants using Ontology Accordingly, we need the ontology to represent knowledge. W3C announced OWL(Web Ontology Language), meaning description technology for such web resource. However, the development of a special tool that can effectively compose and edit OWL is inactive. In this paper, we designed and developed an OWL authoring system that can effectively provide the generation and edit about OWL.

Until now, most semantic web service discovery research has been carried out using either Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) or a profile of OWL-based Web Service ontology (OWL-S). However, such efforts have focused primarily on service name and input/output ontology. Thus, the internal information of a service has not been utilized, and queries regarding internal information such as 'Find book-selling services allowing payment after delivery' are not addressed. This study outlines the development of TM-S (Topic Maps for Service) ontology and TMS-QL (TM-S Query Language), two novel technologies that address the aforementioned issues in semantic web service discovery research. TM-S ontology describes the behavior of services using process information and consists of three sub-ontologies: process signature ontology, process structure ontology and process concept ontology. TMS-QL allows users to describe service discovery requests.

Continual attempts to accumulate and apply information eventually gave birth to the concept of the "Semantic Web". Thus, the "Semantic Web" can be defined as a product of mankind's desire to standardize information. At the same time, the term provides "a method that standardizes mankind's concept of linguistical expression", and can be noted as an effort to combine such methods into a standard web environment that may materialize to form a catalogue. This study introduced RDF schema, ontology languages for the semantic web, and ontology-based systems. The purpose of the study was to construct a system based on the semantic web environment's ontology by utilizing the ontology schema derived from the facettype Art and Architecture Thesaurus(AAT). The aforementioned ontology schema is based on the Web Ontology Language(OWL), which is being widely considered the standard ontology language for the W3C-centered semantic web environment.
