Abstract :
Currently most present web-based course still organized knowledge in accordance with sections. In view of the existing problems of the above knowledge organization form, this paper takes the curriculum of computer organization as an example to discuss ontology-based knowledge representation. In the extraction of concepts and their relationships, this paper not only borrows ideas from WorldNet, a quite common ontology that has considerable influence in the international computing linguistics, but also depends on the actual need of the course to expand and redefine them, in order to improve the sharability and reusability of the established curricular ontology. Moreover, methods of storage and exchange of ontology-based database are introduced in detail for providing better knowledge display and organization in actual applications.
