Abstract

This year the concept of "Semantic Web" celebrates its tenth anniversary since it was coined by prominent researchers Tim Berners-Lee, James Hendler and Ora Lassila. To date, there are many technologies to describe, in a machine-understandable way, information and services available in the Web. An incipient research area is focused on solving the issues related to building applications for truly exploiting semantically-described resources. In this paper, we present an approach to upgrade a software application into a Semantic Web-enabled one. The approach builds on the Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) paradigm to allow developers to incorporate ontology management capabilities into an ordinary object-oriented application without modifying its source code. The paper also discusses related works and presents case studies.
