Interface Concept

All Superinterfaces:

Accessible, AuthoritativeItem, Described, Entity, Identifiable, ItemHolder, Linkable, PermissionGrantTarget, PermissionScope, com.tinkerpop.frames.VertexFrame

All Known Implementing Classes:

Concept.Impl

public interface Concept
extends Described, AuthoritativeItem, ItemHolder

This models the thesaurus terms or keywords in a way that is better managing multi-linguality. The terms are then labels of concepts in a specific language and concepts can have many labels. This is following the SKOS-Core concept, but not fully so we don't use 'SKOS' in the class name. For SKOS core see: http://www.w3.org/2009/08/skos-reference/skos.html Also note that the labels and textual information of a single language are all placed in a ConceptDescription, following the pattern that the textual details of an entity are described by a Description entity. A nice glossary of terms used with controlled vocabularies can be found here: http://www.willpowerinfo.co.uk/glossary.htm
