Abstract
SKOS (Simple Knowledge Organisation System) is a W3C Recommendation for sharing and linking structured vocabularies - taxonomies, thesauri, classification schemes, etc. - via theWeb [1]. Since the SKOS specification leaves the semantics of SKOS rather open, large modeling projects may specialise SKOS with informal modeling guidelines that narrow down the class of acceptable models (cf. [5]). Unfortunately, verifying that a (large) model complies with informal guidelines is a time consuming, error prone manual process.
