“…The upgradeable provisions for the business operators can reduce the contrast between individual farming practice and the relevant technological actions. Earlier researches, such as in bioinformatics (Baker et al, 1999;Lambrix and Edberg, 2003), in World Wide Web design (Crampes and Ranwez, 2000;Liddle et al, 2003;Sunagawa et al, 2003) and medical informatics (Achour et al, 2001;Gennari et al, 2002;Musen, 1998) justified ontology development as an established and workable concept in effective knowledge modelling. Unlike other domains, we used the ontology development approach as a progressive way to model knowledge from the dairy operational domain, which was utilised for developing and delivering specific and targetrelevant DSS because of its generic capability.…”

This paper describes a new knowledge acquisition method using a generic design environment where context-sensitive knowledge is used to build specific DSS for rural business. Although standard knowledge acquisition methods have been applied in rural business applications, uptake remains low and familiar weaknesses such as obsolescence and brittleness apply. We describe a decision support system (DSS) building environment where contextual factors relevant to the end-users are directly taken into consideration. This "end user enabled design environment" (EUEDE) engages both domain experts in creating an expert knowledge-base and business operators/end users (such as farmers) in using this knowledge for building their specific DSS. We document the knowledge organisation for the problem domain, namely a dairy industry application. This development involved a case study research approach used to explore dairy operational knowledge. In this system end users can tailor their decision-making requirements using their own judgement to build specific DSSs. In a specific end user's farming context, each specific DSS provides expert suggestions to assist farmers in improving their farming practice. The paper also shows the environment's generic capability.

“…Finally, conceptual navigation [9] and conceptual hypermedia [6] discuss the use of taxonomies or ontologies to support browsing of the annotated information space. Vox Populi differs from their approach because a thesaurus is used not only to annotate (or classify [6]) information items but also to establish semantic relations between them.…”

C e n t r u m v o o r W i s k u n d e e n I n f o r m a t i c a INformation SystemsSupporting the generation of argument structure within video sequences S. Bocconi, F.-M. Nack, L. Hardman Supporting the generation of argument structure within video sequences ABSTRACT Browsing is a useful way of exploring annotated media repositories. Sets of links can be automatically created from the annotations associated with the media items in the repository. When there are also relationships among the annotations themselves, such as when the annotation terms are part of a thesaurus, these relations can also be used in the link generation process. Using structured annotations and a thesaurus for generating link sets has two advantages. The first is to evaluate the effectiveness of the terms in the thesaurus for classifying the media items in the repository. The second is to be able to control the links being generated by changing relationships within the thesaurus. The work is illustrated using video segments annotated with argument structures, but we show that the method used is independent of the media types and applicable to systems that use similar annotation structures and typed relations among them.

“…The idea is to replace direct linking between fragments (often called horizontal linking) by inferred links that correspond to paths starting from a fragment, traversing one or several ontology concepts, and ending on another fragment [1] [2]. We have observed that these inferences provide semantically relevant links because users (authors) are generally able to establish correctly typed links from their fragments to the relevant concepts.…”

This paper describes a technique for integrating several (many) virtual hyperbooks in a digital library. We consider a virtual hyperbook model that comprises a domain ontology. By interconnecting the hyperbook's ontologies, we can create a multi-point of view ontology that describes a set of hyperbooks. A hypertext interface specification language can use this ontology to construct new semantically and narratively coherent hyperdocuments based on the content of several hyperbooks.
