ABSTRACT

This module provides transparent methods to maintain Thesaurus files. The module uses a subset from ISO 2788 which defines some standard features to be found on thesaurus files. The module also supports multilingual thesaurus and some extensions to the ISOs standard.

A Thesaurus is a classification structure. We can see it as a graph where nodes are terms and the vertices are relations between terms.

This module provides transparent methods to maintain Thesaurus files. The module uses a subset from ISO 2788 which defines some standard features to be found on thesaurus files. This ISO includes a set of relations that can be seen as standard but, this program can use user defined ones. So, it can be used on ISO or not ISO thesaurus files.
