Welcome to NeOn!
Thursday, 25 May 2006
NeOn is a 14.7 million Euros project involving 14 European partners and co-funded by the European Commission’s Sixth Framework Programme under grant number IST-2005-027595. NeOn started in March 2006 and has a duration of 4 years. Our aim is to advance the state of the art in using ontologies for large-scale semantic applications in the distributed organizations. Particularly, we aim at improving the capability to handle multiple networked ontologies that exist in a particular context, are created collaboratively, and might be highly dynamic and constantly evolving.

The first release of the NeOn Toolkit, one of the core outcomes of the NeOn project, is available for download and testing from the NeOn Toolkit & Community site.

First NeOn PhD Symposium
Thursday, 03 July 2008

On June 24 2008, the first NeOn PhD Symposium successfully took place in Dubrovnik, Croatia.

Thirteen students presented their work to peers and senior researchers within the NeOn Project. Project Co-ordinator Enrico Motta said, "The quality of the presentations was of a high standard and the topics discussed were diverse, covering a wide range of themes within the NeOn workpackages".

The topics included;

  • Ontology Visualisation
  • Ontology Design Patterns
  • Relation Discovery between Ontologies
  • Non Ontological Resource Re-engineering and Social Networks
  • Ontology Evolution and Change Management
  • Ontology Maintenance and Customization
  • Access Rights and Trust in the Semantic Web
  • Ontology Evaluation and Reuse
  • Ontology Networks

The PhD Symposium proved to be an excellent opportunity in bringing together students from different institutes, resulting in the creation of synergies and collaborations within the NeOn project. Due to its success there are plans to hold the PhD Symposium annually.
