Building an academic social network: for Bologna mobility
Article No.: 1, Pages 1 - 5
Abstract
An Academic Social Network (ASN) will help students to share commons academic interests, preferences and profiles as well as their historical studies. This paper presents a vision in order to build an ASN focusing the Bologna Declaration mobility issues. The first step is the description of the conceptual support, centered in the ontology for knowledge sharing and reuse. To achieve this, it is proposed, as a solution, the FAOBP ontology to represent the student profile in the social network. This ontology obtained by the merge of AOBP and FOAF ontologies. Next step is the adoption of strategies to make available, in the network, knowledge about mobility issues. For this, it is proposed, as future work, the knowledge discovering and simulation approaches to cover student's mobility scenarios.
