Expanding its Semantic Web technology stack, the W3C (World Wide Consortium ) announced this week a standard to bridge knowledge organization systems like classifications, thesauri, and taxonomies to linked data.
The Semantic Web is intended to make it easier to search for relevant documents and information on the Web. With the W3C SKOS (Simple Knowledge Organization System) standard, enterprises, social networking applications, government portals, and others managing large collections of items, such as books, news reports, and blog entries, can leverage linked data capabilities. SKOS provides a model for expressing basic structure and content of concepts, such as thesauri, subject heading lists, and taxonomies. Different communities can use SKOS to link vocabularies to the Semantic Web.
