They are now the concerns of marketing departments, CEOs, and mainstream business. Research analyst companies such as Forrester Research report on the critical roles of ontologies in support of browsing and search for e-commerce and in support of interoperability for facilitation of knowledge management and configuration. One now sees ontologies used as central controlled vocabularies that are integrated into catalogues, databases, web publications, knowledge management applications, etc. Large ontologies are essential components in many online applications including search (such as Yahoo and Lycos), e-commerce (such as Amazon and eBay), configuration (such as Dell and PC-Order), etc. One also sees ontologies that have long life spans, sometimes in multiple projects (such as UMLS, SIC codes, etc.). Such diverse usage generates many implications for ontology environments. In this paper, we will discuss ontologies and requirements in their current instantiations on the web today. We will describe some desirable properties of ontologies. We will also discuss how both simple and complex ontologies are being and may be used to support varied applications. We will conclude with a discussion of emerging trends in ontologies and their environments and briefly mention our evolving ontology evolution environment.}, author = {McGuinness, Deborah L.}, booktitle = {Spinning the Semantic Web: Bringing the World Wide Web to Its Full Potential}, editor = {Fensel, Dieter and Hendler, Jim and Lieberman, Henry and Wahlster, Wolfgang}, interhash = {065b3714dd6e26370f42f02560d5c856}, intrahash = {54399c6246d5b8d6afd38d133f8404f9}, publisher = {MIT Press}, title = {Ontologies Come of Age}, url = {http://www.ksl.stanford.edu/people/dlm/papers/ontologies-come-of-age-mit-press-(with-citation).htm}, year = 2003 } @article{journals/sigmod/UscholdG04, author = {Uschold, Michael and Grüninger, Michael}, ee = {http://www.sigmod.org/sigmod/record/issues/0412/12.uschold-9.pdf}, interhash = {c00acd278cb13761225295d943889326}, intrahash = {25d1088ff4c2f4c5eaf25417a0a04664}, journal = {SIGMOD Record}, number = 4, pages = {58-64}, title = {Ontologies and Semantics for Seamless Connectivity.}, url = {http://dblp.uni-trier.de/db/journals/sigmod/sigmod33.html#UscholdG04}, volume = 33, year = 2004 } @inproceedings{bozsak2002towards, author = {Bozsak, E. and Ehrig, Marc and Handschuh, Siegfried and Hotho, Andreas and Maedche, Alexander and Motik, Boris and Oberle, Daniel and Schmitz, Christoph and Staab, Steffen and Stojanovic, Ljiljana and Stojanovic, Nenad and Studer, Rudi and Stumme, Gerd and Sure, York and Tane, Julien and Volz, Raphael and Zacharias, Valentin}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the Third International Conference on E-Commerce and Web Technologies (EC-Web 2002), Aix-en-Provence, France}, editor = {Bauknecht, Kurt and Tjoa, A.

Of particular interest for supporting users during the personalization are collaborative filtering systems which can produce personal recommendations by computing the similarity between own preferences and the one of other people. In this paper we adapt a collaborative filtering recommender system to assist users in the management and evolution of their personal ontology by providing detailed suggestions of ontology changes.
