Abstract

Semantic
Web provides models and abstractions to process web-accessible information and
services to be more effectively. The effective communication with semantic web is ontology, which is the concept
of the entities that means concreted objects. It provides formal and explicit
specification of the conceptualization in any domain.
In this paper, we designed an ontology in which the academic studies have been
classified. After the description of the logic rules, we
realized formal concept analysis of the constituted ontology. All classes of
our ontology include instances interacting with each other according to the
object property assertions and it has been built with OWL web ontology language
by using Protege. Finally, we defined SPARQL queries of our prototype.

Keywords

Ontology, semantic web, conceptualization, knowledge representation, SPARQL
