GUZMAN LUNA, Jaime A; TORRES PARDO, Durley  y  LOPEZ GARCIA, Alba Nubia. Development of an ontology in the context of the semantic web: the migration of the traditional documentary thesaurus. Rev. Interam. Bibliot [online]. 2006, vol.29, n.2, pp.79-95. ISSN 0120-0976.

A thesaurus is a documentary tool that is used to catalog and retrieve information in specialized environments.  In the search for better alternatives in the representation of information resources, ontologies-in the context of the semantic web-are being seen as a new means of representing the knowledge that currently exists in thesauri, now that it has been demonstrated that ontologies make it possible to improve the precision and the reutilization of all kinds of knowledge.  The objective of this work is to present an option  for the migration of the traditional documentary thesaurus to ontology in the environment of the semantic web, with the objective of permitting its use in document retrieval.

Palabras clave : Thesaurus; Ontology; Semantic Web; Migration of Thesaurus; Information Retrieval.
