If you are not family or friend then this is great and you should buy it.

Semantic technologies typically take part in the challenge of managing the massive amounts of information that we are facing today.
A series of standardization efforts, research and industrial... More > projects have led to semantic technologies that are mature enough to be part of business systems. Fundamental to the creation and sustained operation of semantic systems is successful ontology management.
The 2008 state of the art of ontology management with its key tasks ontology design, ontology evolution, ontology mapping and ontology reasoning is presented in this book.
This book is a first result of the German Theseus project, funded by the German federal ministry of economics and technology.< Less

This book is based on Sebastian's PhD thesis. He reviews architectures, abstract models, metadata standards and various technologies for building digital library management systems.
He derives... More > requirements for advanced digital libraries and proposes an architecture model and a set of ontologies for semantic digital libraries. This book presents information discovery services using the semantic and social technologies, and the prototype implementation of a semantic digital library that answers these requirements.
The claim presented in this book is that the semantic and social technologies applied a digital library management system delivers more efficient information discovery solutions, while the library users become more satisfied and can remember more information from what they have learned when using the library.

This is a STEDT Facsimile Edition of James A. Matisoff's pioneering 1978 book Variational Semantics in Tibeto-Burman: The "organic" approach to linguistic comparison. This volume explores... More > strategies for sub-grouping Tibeto-Burman (TB) languages, addressing phonological, morphological, and morphophonemic criteria for determining genetic relations. Matisoff here defines many of the key concepts underlying his influential linguistic theories and findings, including "semantic fields", "semantic systems", and "multi-dimensional semantic space", looking in particular at TB body-part terms, and charting the complex semantic relations among TB internal organs.< Less

The basic approach is... More > to study a 'protolanguage' as a fundamental block of languages.
