The results obtained so far show that the reengineering of classification systems stored as relational databases is possible, although

This requires categorizing existing database records across the organizations web sites into the new scheme. An algorithm to automatically categorize these metadata records based on their subject descriptors has been devised.

It proposes modifications to the inter-thesaurus mapping rules provided in the Simple Knowledge Organization System ( ...

With the rise of full text search and online availability of more research material, the role for bibliographic metadata can appear redundant. When considered instead as a form of modelling that emphasizes relationships, connections and links, bibliographic metadata grows in value as the Web ...
