Description
Summary:Technologies of the Internet of Things (IoT) and of smart spaces provide an effective base for creating smart museums based on digitized infrastructures and information systems already deployed in many modern museums. Cultural heritage knowledge in such a museum is used by interested visitors as well as by professionals. This work continues our research on the smart museum concept and its case study of everyday life history in the History Museum of Petrozavodsk State University. We provide an ontological model for the needs of studying the everyday life history. The ontology supports integrating available descriptions of museum exhibits (collected in the existed museum information system) into a semantic network, where the links reflect relations between exhibits and other historical objects. We apply the wiki technology within the smart spaces-based architecture of a smart museum. The wiki implements an ontology-enabled system that experts use to extract semantics from the existed museum information system. We discuss possible semantic algorithms for data mining in the museum semantic network.
