Abstract
Ontologies, structured vocabularies and terminologies are used as knowledge organization system (KOS) for building knowledge-based applications. KOS are used for facilitating sharing data and the Linked Open Data initiative has opened new perspectives for integrating heterogeneous data on the web. However, the increasing availability of KOS on the web as well as ad hoc and in-house classifications not yet present in the infrastructure of the Semantic Web raises the question of their identification and reuse. We describe an approach of building cooperative decentralized repositories of ontologies. The approach is being implemented on top ServO (Server of Ontologies), a dynamic ontology repository building tool aiming at indexing and searching KOS and computing similarities between their entities.

Making Biomedical Ontologies and Ontology Repositories Work
Considerable difficulty is involved in standardizing the databases, metadata formats, and knowledge bases that contain the wealth of information available to the biomedical community. One possible solution is to create virtual ontology repositories, ...
Aligning the large-scale ontologies on schema-level for weaving Chinese linked open data
AbstractThis study purposes a data field and sequence alignment-based ontology mapping architecture, as ontology mapping is an important way to solve the problem of ontology heterogeneous; meanwhile, it also can be considered as a typical scenario on ...
Distributed Repositories of Highly Expressive Reusable Ontologies
The authors present a vision of next generation tools and services that will enable the widespread development and use of computer interpretable ontologies. Central to that vision is the notion of distributed ontology repositories, resident on multiple ...
