| Popis: | One of the new approaches to organizing journal articles is using Semantic Web technologies and new "Semantic Publishing" methods based on the ontological models for semantic modeling and representation of these publications. This study aims to design the metadata ontology model for semantic modeling and representation of scholarly journal articles. This research was carried out using the content analysis method. The study population includes articles published in ISC journals (i.e., journals indexed in ISC). A sample of 200 articles from a Persian journal (i.e., "Iranian Journal of Information Processing & Management") and an English journal (i.e., "International Journal of Information Science and Management (IJISM)") were considered for semantic modeling and representation using the metadata ontology model. The data-gathering method was a systematic observation, and the data-gathering tool was a checklist based on the Semantic Publishing and Referencing Ontologies (SPAR Ontologies). This research identified the metadata entities required for semantic modeling and representation of ISC scholarly journal articles. Then, the metadata ontology model was designed using Protege (an ontology editor) and the RDF representation of the model was created in RDF/XML Syntax. After designing the metadata ontology model, the RDF graph of this model was developed to analyze the entities and relationships between them, and its results were analyzed. The results of RDF graph analysis show that the design of the ontology model and the creation of the RDF links between entities significantly impact the semantic description and representation of metadata entities of the ISC scholarly journal articles and the network of relations between them. |
