Abstract

Semantic web technologies provide flexible tools and approaches for modeling enterprise tacit knowledge. Literature published after 2000 identifies three primary types of ontologies: (a) upper level, describing general or common concepts, (b) mid level, extending upper level concepts to a domain space, and (c) lower level, or domain specific, that define the nuances to an organization or domain (Kiryakov, Simov, & Dimitrov, 2001). Tools and ontologies are cataloged in an inventory, including advantages and disadvantages.
