Contextualisation
June 13, 2013 3
This project aims to organize and publish all
terms of the website of the Portuguese
Communications Authority – ANACOM, into a
linked open data perspective.
We selected a W3C recommendation, SKOS,
that allows concepts to be composed and
published on the World Wide Web, linked with
data on the Web and integrated into other
concept schemes(4).
Problem (1/2)
ANACOM has all its
Web Site resources
described using
Dublin Core (DC),
encoded in HTML,
which corresponds to
the level one of
interoperability for DC
metadata and in level
3 of the Tim Berners-
Lee’ five star scheme.

Objectives
June 13, 2013 6
Analyse and organize the terms being used to
describe resources at ANACOM's website;
Relate the resulting controlled vocabularies
with other existing vocabularies;
Encode the resulting controlled vocabularies in
SKOS in, at least, two languages, and under a
five star LOD perspective.
Methodology
June 13, 2013 7
We adopted a hybrid approach, combining the
best features of each methodology. Specifically
with regard to the construction of vocabularies,
we will combine Ontology Development 101(6)
and the methodology proposed by the
European Programme ISA(7), one of the most
recent outputs in this area.
