Abstract

Metaphor is a high-level abstract concept that can be an important part of active conceptual modeling. In this paper, we use the extended Unified Modeling Language (UML) for metaphor modeling. We discuss how to create UML diagrams to capture knowledge about metaphors. The metaphor-based processing system on the Semantic Web can support new query/search operations. Such a computer system can be used for a broad spectrum of applications such as predicting surprises (e.g., terrorist attacks) or generating automatically new innovations.
