A Semantic-Based Architecture for Managing Knowledge-Intensive Organizations: The ARISTOTELE Platform

Abstract

We present the semantic-based architecture of the ARISTO-TELE platform, which is founded on the definition and development of models, methodologies, technologies and tools to support the emergence of competences and creativity within workers by self-organizing acquisition, processing and sharing of new information inside knowledge-intensi-ve organizations. ARISTOTELE’s architecture relies on semantic data by means of a number of conceptual models, which define the context of interest for an enterprise via a set of concepts and relationships among them. Instances of these models are used to annotate content data, thus creating a semantic network of information that actualizes the Linked Data paradigm within the information space of an organization. In this paper we describe the building elements of the ARISTOTELE platform, the conceptual models which lie behind them and the core Linked Data Layer component responsible of managing information for the whole system.
