What is ontology? Ontology is originally a concept in philosophy, which seeks to answer a question: What exists? Aristotle gave the definition of science of being qua being, which later knows as Ontology. This term was introduced to the field of computer science late 20th century, but used to describe the objects in a domain and the relations between them. In the view of web researchers, ontology refers to a document or file that formally defines the relations among terms. Thus, basically we can say if two persons share a same ontology for the communication, the ambiguity will never happen between them. Tim Berners-Lee hopes this kind of accurate communication not only happens to person-to-person, but also machine-to-machine or machine-to-people.

On today’s Internet, we share a lot of important, funny, or useless information with our friends and relatives or somebody we even never know. But machines never participate in because all the information is totally meaningless for them. How about we let machines learn to know what we are talking about on web and help us? I think this is the main goal for Tim Berners-Lee to develop semantic web. Ontology ensure the every entity have only one concepts, which helps the data combining and exchanging successfully. Besides Semantic web, ontology also plays important roles in many fields of bioinfomatics such as gene ontology.


 * Hello,


 * This is a good beginning. You may continue forward by breaking your writing into many little pieces, say a few words or at most one short sentence in each piece.  Then locate and read some existing articles on wiki that are somehow relevant to a given piece.  Very Carefully and patiently, decide where in a particular related wiki article your first short piece fits.  Add that short piece right in there at its most appropriate point and place in that article, of course.  Continue the same way for your other pieces.


 * Did you notice articles have a "discussion" page where previous contributors have communicated things. It's always a good idea to have at least an overal observation of what are said, before you apply a new modification to the article.
