Popis: Data which is created and shared on the Web is characterized by the massive amount of user generated content on various applications and dynamically evolving content on the basis of user interests. Thus, in order to benefit from Web data, it is essential to provide (a) the mechanisms which enable scalable processing of large data collections and (b) the organization schemes which reduce the navigational overhead within complex and dynamically growing content. Between these two impending needs, in this paper, we are interested in developing an indexing scheme which aims to reduce the time and effort needed to access the relevant piece of information by leveraging ontologies. In particular, considering evolving nature of Web contents, the proposed technique in this paper computes the sub-ontology, which best matches a given data collection, from the existing large size of ontology. Case studies show that the proposed indexing scheme in this paper indeed helps organize dynamically evolving content.
