Abstract

Healthcare has played a main role in the Semantic Web (SW) field given the knowledge representation possibilities that SW is capable to address. Several authors have proposed taxonomies, systems and methodologies to be able to assure the correct interaction between healthcare and Semantic Web. This paper presents a new design of modular ontology which allows its use in the healthcare domain, concretely in diagnosis decision support systems.
