Music domain ontology applications for intelligent web searching

Resumen

The Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web that at-
tempts to reach a state in the future where everything on the Web will
no longer be only machine-readable, but also machine-understandable.
Three important technologies for developing the Semantic Web are al-
ready in place: Extensible Markup Language (XML), the Resource
Description Framework (RDF), and Web Ontology Language (OWL).
An ontology language is a formal language used to encode ontologies.
An ontology is an explicit speci¯cation of a conceptualization. Many
disciplines now develop standardized ontologies that domain experts
can use to share and annotate information in their ¯elds, and which
can be used for reasoning about the objects within a particular do-
main. It includes machine-interpretable de¯nitions of basic concepts
in the domain and relations among them. In this work, we develop an
ontology of Argentinean music. Despite being highly speci¯c, we illus-
trate how such an ontology can be expanded and used in applications
that carry out complex music related searches. These applications can
be embedded later on in electronic devices with some form of wireless
networking capability, such as mobile phones, enriching their current
functionality.
