Ontologias bibliográficas e Web Semântica: limitações e propostas de investigação

The literature on bibliographic data and ontologies on the Semantic Web identifies problems, not in terms of data instances or their publication in isolated sets, but regarding the ontologies that describe the underlying concepts, impacting on the quality of semantic interoperability and in sharing ontologies between systems.This paper elaborates on the adequacy of conceptual models and the limitations of FRBR - Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (IFLA, 1998, 2018)1 to the Semantic Web; the absence of a common conceptual framework; the insufficiency of semantic mechanisms; the low and deficient reuse of external vocabularies; and the inadequacy of mapping methodologies being applied.A research project is presented proposing a solution to the semantic problems in sharing ontologies, through the creation of a conceptual reference model and a reference ontology as a high level mechanism for semantic relations and data validation using SHACL - Shapes Constraint Language (KNUBLAUCH e KONTOKOSTAS, 2017).
