Abstract: A broad range of approaches to semantic document retrieval has been developed in the context of the Semantic Web. This survey builds bridges among them. We introduce a classification scheme for semantic search engines and clarify terminology. We present an overview of ten selected approaches and compare them by means of our classification criteria. Based on this comparison, we identify not only common concepts and outstanding features, but also open issues. Finally, we give directions for future application development and research.
Document retrieval approaches developed in the context of the Semantic Web are surveyed in REF .
