Abstract
Representations of domain knowledge range from those that are ontologically formal, semantically rich to those that are ontologi- cally informal and semantically weak. Representations of knowledge are important in many tasks, one of which is the support of travel around information spaces through the identification and linking of concepts in a field. In this paper we explore how representations of ontologically in- formal, semantically weak domain knowledge as captured by the Simple Knowledge Organisation System (SKOS) can enable a system to take advantage of the large number of existing ontological representations to support semantic linking of Web based information and thus facilitate information travel.
