چکیده

We use an example from information retrieval to explore Web-based semantics, which can be presented in different ways and carried by different bearers of the information retrieval process. We describe four presentations of semantics: natural language with minimal markup, simple metadata, basic data models, and logical semantics. Each presentation of semantics can be borne by human users, search interfaces, documents, or search systems. We show that different presentations of semantics vary across a spectrum of expressiveness and arbitrariness of meanings that are shared and processed during information retrieval.

Application of Frame Semantics to Teaching Seeing and Hearing Vocabulary to Iranian EFL Learners

A term in one language rarely has an absolute synonymous meaning in the same language; besides, it rarely has an equivalent meaning in an L2. English synonyms of seeing and hearing are particularly grammatically and semantically different. Frame semantics is a good tool for discovering differences between synonymous words in L2 and differences between supposed L1 and L2 equivalents. Vocabulary ...

Declarative Semantics in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey

One of the modern paradigms to develop an application is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles in applications. In an application, we must distinguish between procedural semantics and declarative semantics for their implementation in a specific programming language. For the procedural semantics, we can write a ...
