Abstract

This paper deals with a portal for a group or community organisation and how to take advantage of having an ontology to support its operation and services. The ontology, as a representation mechanism, interprets all the available knowledge and provides adequate ways of exploiting it, which include enhanced searching capabilities to facilitate social navigation. The ontology takes into account the context and users' working style to assist the learners.
