Using semantically-enabled components for social web-based scientific collaborations

Abstract

The article reviews how various publishing and social networking components on the Web might be semantically enabled to create an environment in which connections between diverse subjects, both within a given domain such as chemistry, and across domains, can be facilitated. An example is constructed called SemanticEye, and illustrated using vocabularies based on FOAF (Friend of a Friend), together with DOI and InChI identifiers. © 2010 American Chemical Society.
