A methodology for semantic qualification of schemas

TL;DRAbstract

Abstract. The semantics of vocabulary elements use to be defined locally with scarce rigorousness and without consideration to shared definitions in other vocabularies, this approach produces a lack in the interoperability between resources. This document provides metadata vocabularies with a semantic map, articulated by a new qualifier set. The qualifier set is named semantic qualifiers, which permits to use semantics included in public reference resources. Moreover, a methodology is proposed. The solution improves previous initiatives concerning metadata management like Metadata Registries (ISO/IEC, 2006) or other DCMI proposals. In addition, it considers Modularity, Extensibility, Refining and Plurilinguistic criteria. A descriptive document is proposed with two views, one aimed to the user and an additional in RDF. The fields that would get benefits from the proposal are conceptual recovery of elements in the Semantic Web, the use of application profiles, and the friendlier use of
