  4. Principle 1: semantic annotation • Description of web objects with “concepts” from a shared vocabulary

  5. Search for objects which are linked via concepts (semantic link) Use the type of semantic link to provide meaningful presentation of the search results Principle 2: semantic search ape great ape urang-utang orange

  6. Principle 3: multiple vocabularies. or: the myth of a unified vocabulary • In large virtual collections there are always multiple vocabularies • In multiple languages • Every vocabulary has its own perspective • You can’t just merge them • But you can use vocabularies jointly by defining a limited set of links • “Vocabulary alignment” • It is surprising what you can do with just a few links

  7. Example “Tokugawa” AAT style/period Edo (Japanese period) Tokugawa SVCN period Edo SVCN is local in-house thesaurus
