Development of Ontologies for the Semantic Web: An Overview

Proc. of the 40th Annual Conference of the Italian Computing Association (AICA 2002). 2002.

In this paper we overview the main research areas that, in our view, will have a profound impact on the future development of ontologies for the Semantic Web. Specifically, apart from the research on ontologies itself, we analyse the following fields whose technologies may contribute to ontology development: knowledge representation and reasoning techniques and systems, information integration and interoperation in databases and information systems, and quality analysis and quality based design.
