GONZALEZ PEREZ, Yanelis. Use of ontology in information representation and organization . ACIMED [online]. 2006, vol.14, n.4, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1024-9435.

The need of a change in the processing of information in the Web environment is analyzed. The common and divergent theoretical aspects related to the practices that have historically marked the processes that structure the phase of information organization and representation, are valued from the point of view of the introduction and utilization of ontology. The methodological, linguistic and epistemologic features that should guide its construction as well as the opportunities and challenges ontology present in this phase of the cycle of life of information are undertaken. A processing of the information dealing with the meaning of words in the Web environment becomes indispensable
