Semantic Web Technologies for Economic and Financial Information Management

The field of economy and finance is a conceptually rich domain where information is complex, huge in volume and a highly valuable business product by itself. Novel management techniques are required for economic and financial information in order to enable an efficient generation, management and consumption of complex and big information resources. Following this direction, we have developed and ontology-based platform that provides a) the integration of contents and semantics in a knowledge base that provides a conceptual view on low-level contents, b) an adaptive hypermedia-based knowledge visualization and navigation system and c) semantic search facilities. We have developed, as the basis of this platform, an ontology for the domain of economic and financial information.
