DIGITAL MODEL FOR STORING AND DISSEMINATING KNOWLEDGE CONTAINED IN SPECIFICATION DOCUMENTS

摘要

A system for storing and disseminating knowledge contained in documents includes a document annotator that creates a structured syntactic textual model of each of the documents, an ontology directed extractor that extracts properties from the textual models, a database for storing the textual models and the properties, and an interface permitting queries to the database. The document annotator includes a plurality of data transformers and a plurality of custom annotator tools. The ontology directed extractor includes an ontology based schema definition and a plurality of ontology based data transformers. The interface includes a plurality of XSLT style sheets selectable according to context.

1. A system for organizing, storing and disseminating knowledge contained in a collection of documents, said system embodied on a tangible computer readable medium coupled to a processor and comprising:
an ontology that provides a schema to represent the syntax and semantics of the collection of documents; a document annotator/converter that creates a shared structured syntactic model of the documents; a ontology directed semantic tagger that creates a shared structured semantic model of the documents; a database for storing the syntactic and semantic models as objects in the ontology; and an interface permitting queries to the database.
