Abstract

This paper reviews the use of computer ontologies for Internet data linking and knowledge representation. We discuss a trend in organizing ontology libraries and servers for the joint development of ontologies and their application. Ontology libraries are regarded as public Web resources. We pay special attention to the design of ontology libraries, their debugging, and directions for their development.
