摘要
Ontology是对一个特定领域中重要概念的共享的形式化的描述,由于具有明确性和共享性,它可以作为领域内不同主体之间进行交流的语义基础;更进一步的,Ontology可以帮助机器理解文档表达的语义信息。语义网络是Ontology的一个重要应用场景,Ontology用来描述网络资源的语义,从而使机器具有自动管理网络信息的能力。那么巨大的数据规模是语义网络环境下Ontology数据存储管理面临的一个突出问题,所以介绍了本体存储的方法、存储模式及几种典型的本体存储管理系统。讨论了当前本体存储模式的问题并展望了未来的发展方向。
Ontology is formal specification of shared conceptualization in certain domain. For it is explicit and shared,ontology can be used as the semantic foundation of communication between different agents. Further,ontology can help machines understand the semantics in documents. Semantic Web is an important application scenario of ontology. Ontology is used to describe the semantics of Web resources, and enable machines do Web information management automatically. The very large volume of data is a significant problem of ontology data storage management in Semantic Web environment. An introduction of ontology storage is given, including methods, schema and several typical ontology storage management system. Finally, the shortage of current ontology storage pattern are discussed and future researches in this field are suggested.
