Abstract

Electronic Program Guides (EPGs) describe broadcast programming information provided by TV stations. However, users may obtain more information when these guides have been enriched. The main contribution of this work is to present an automation process for EPG´s information enrichment through the use of semantic technologies and external resources. Among the several resources involved in the enrichment process, the following can be mentioned : ontologies, web services, semantic repositories and natural language processing techniques.
