QUERING ONTOLOGICALLY HETEROGENEOUSTEXTUAL RESOURCES ON THE WEB

Abstract

This paper presents a solution for searching ontologically heterogeneous distributed textual resources on the Web, based on “peer-to peer” (P2P) architecture. Suggested solution is founded on the Abstract Query Language (AQL), which is based on the Abstract Model. The concepts of the Abstract Model are capable to incorporate and unify different local ontologies that describe different kinds of specific local documents. An ontological ADMIS- Super peer architecture supports the new distributed version of ADMIS, a generalized administrative process management system, which is under development at the Laboratory for Information Systems, Faculty of Organizational Sciences, is presented too. The new version of ADMIS incorporates searching ontologically heterogeneous distributed textual resources based on AQL. The system is implemented in Microsoft .NET environment that provides very good support for XML and Web based applications.
