Semantic Web Related Features



Storage


    * utilization of well defined ontologies for metadata storing
          o MarcOnt ontology for bibliographic description
          o JeromeDL ontology for description of resource structure
          o FOAFRealm ontology for information about user profile and authors

    * Sesame RDF framework for metadata

    * MarcOnt Mediation Services (MMS)
          o provides interoperability between MARC21, BibTeX and DublinCore metadata
          o delivering metadata to other services
          o allows retrieval of metadata in any ontology

Browsing


    * dynamic collections
          o specified with triples filter or RDF query
          o easily extensible

    * access control
          o apply access control licenses to resources and services
          o defines atomic protections based on IP or position in the social network
          o is easily extensible

    * TagsTreeMaps
          o filtering based on clustered tags
          o using tree maps to present the tag space
          o zoom-able interface paradigm

    * Exhibit (SIMILE, MIT)
          o powerful facet filtering
          o rendering related dates on the timeline
          o rendering related dates on the google maps

    * MultiBeeBrowser
          o collaborative browsing
          o allows to perform complex browsing operations
          o allows to overview browsing context and look up browsing history

Search


    * typed-keywords search
          o advanced (JeromeDL types)
          o expert (MARC21, BibTeX, DublinCore, etc. types)

    * distributed search
          o searching in the heterogenous network of digital libraries
          o new implementation of the Extensible Library Protocol
          o based on HyperCuP P2P network

    * federated search
          o hierarchical order of JeromeDL instances
          o exposing resources bottom-up

    * Semantic Query Expansion
          o refines query based on current context
          o based on user profile
          o based on history of queries
          o based on current query

    * natural language templates
          o performing complex queries using natural languages
          o easily extendible and modifiable
          o easily internationalized

    * OAI interface (alpha version)
          o harvesting other libraries
          o exposing resources to other libraries

    * OpenSearch interface (to A9.com)

    * RDF query interface
          o querying the RDF storage directly in RDQL and SeRQL
          o SWSE integration

Identity management


    * annotating and evaluating resources by users

    * online bookmarks structure

    * social networking
          o each folder-category is discribed with WordNet concepts (proposed to users from the description he/she provided) and Dewey Decimal Classification entries
          o users can link folders maintained by their friends to their bookmarks structure
          o users can protect the folders with ACLs based on distance and friendship level calculated between folder owner and requester

    * each time user access a resource, the domain information related to the ranking value of folder-category in which this resource is stored is incremented
          o users can manage the ranking values of their domains
          o users can add domains created by their friends to their own list of domains
