Abstract

This paper presents Oyster, a Peer-to-Peer system for exchanging ontology metadata among communities in the Semantic Web. We describe how Oyster assists researchers in re-using existing ontologies, and how Oyster exploits semantic web techniques in data representation, query formulation, query result presentation to provide an online solution to share ontologies.
