Abstract

The ontology is an essential component to demonstrate the semantic Web, which is being described as the next Web generation. A semantic information search based on the ontology can provide the inferred and associated information between data. To develop an ontology application in the real world, we design the architecture of search systems based on the ontology using Web services. Our system consists of ontology modules, search procedure modules for searching, RDQL generator modules, and client modules for user interfaces. Also, we construct a hotel ontology integrated with the related terms and implement a search example with the defined ontology.
