Abstract

Web ontologies as the foundation of the Semantic Web were proposed to integrate heterogeneous information resources in the Web; howbeit several intrinsic limitations of Web ontologies represented in current Web ontology languages make them unsuitable for interactivities. Concept maps that provide a visual language for organizing and representing knowledge are widely used in many disciplines and application domains. This paper mainly describes an interactive visual model Web Ontology Map (WOMap) that extends Web ontologies with concept maps to sharing and exploring large-scale knowledge in an attractive and efficient way towards the Web.
