Description
Springer Ontologies A Handbook of Principles Concepts and Applications in Information Systems by Rajiv Kishore, Ram Ramesh
This book describes the state-of-the-art in ontology-driven information systems (ODIS) and gives a complete perspective on the problems, solutions and open research questions in this field. The book covers four broad areas: foundations of ODIS, ontological engineering, ODIS architectures, and ODIS applications. It will trigger innovative thought processes and open up significant new domains in ODIS research.
