Semantics for Theory

[Franck Le Petit]

	Dear colleagues,

	We developed several SKOS vocabularies that are required to describe instances of classes of the Simulation Data Model. 
	They can be found at the web address : http://votheory.obspm.fr

	These vocabularies have been developed using main journal keywords (MNRAS, ApJ, A&A, ...), Semantic working group's ontology of astronomical objects, VAMDC atomic and molecular database, etc ... Some concepts and vocabularies have been developed by ourselves.

	The web site is dedicated at : 
	1) discovering the URIs of the most common concepts used in simulation codes in various fields.
	2) check the existence of URIs (some web services are provided for this.).

	These vocabularies need to be completed. If you wish to suggest new concepts, you can write at the address :   VOTheory.semantics at obspm.fr or on the theory mailing list.

	We will present these vocabularies and their future evolutions at the next InterOp. 

	Best regards
	Franck Le Petit
