Abstract

This paper presents a visual application in the framework of semantic-enabled e-marketplaces aimed at fully exploiting semantics of supply/demand descriptions in B2C and C2C e-marketplaces. Distinguishing aspects of the framework include logic-based explanation of request results, semantic ranking of matchmaking results, logic-based request refinement. The visual user interface has been designed and implemented to be immediate and simple, and it requires no knowledge of any logic principle to be fully used.
