Towards Semantically-Interlinked Online Communities
نویسندگان
چکیده
Online community sites have replaced the traditional means of keeping a community informed via libraries and publishing. At present, online communities are islands that are not interlinked. We describe different types of online communities and tools that are currently used to build and support such communities. Ontologies and Semantic Web technologies offer an upgrade path to providing more complex services. Fusing information and inferring links between the various applications and types of information provides relevant insights that make the available information on the Internet more valuable. We present the SIOC ontology which combines terms from vocabularies that already exist with new terms needed to describe the relationships between concepts in the realm of online community sites.

The SIOC Project: Semantically-Interlinked Online Communities
The SIOC project is aimed at expressing information about the structure and content of online community sites and at enabling interoperability on the Social Web using Semantic Web technologies. In this paper we briefly describe the SIOC project, introduce the SIOC Core ontology and its modules, and discuss some SIOC-based applications in terms of human and agent communication.

Shared Workspaces are getting more and more popular in helping people collaborate. However, it’s difficult for user to search information across different Shared Workspaces since they are currently islands that are not interlinked. Based on semantic web technologies, SIOC provide ontology and tools to interlink online communities. By using SIOC to develop an explorer for Shared Workspaces, we m...
متن کاملSIOC: an approach to connect web-based communities
Online communities are islands of people and topics that are not interlinked. Complementary discussions exist on disparate systems but it is currently difficult to exploit the available distributed information. A Semantically Interlinked Online Community (SIOC) can enable efficient information dissemination across communities by creating an ontology that will model concepts identified in discus...
