  abstract =     {This article presents the vision and results of creating a national level cross-domain ontology service infrastructure in
Finland in the FinnONTO project. The novelty of the infrastructure is based on two ideas. First, a system of open source core ontologies is being developed by
transforming thesauri into mutually aligned lightweight ontologies,
including a top ontology of 20,000 concepts that is extended by various domain
specific ontologies. Second, the ONKI Ontology Server framework
for publishing ontologies as ready to use services has been designed
and implemented. ONKI provides legacy and other applications with
ready to use functionalities for using ontologies on the user interface level
as semantic widgets. The idea is to use ONKI for creating
mash-up applications in a way analogous to using Google or Yahoo
Maps, but in our case external applications are mashed-up with
ontology support.  The ontology framework presented is operational on the web and is being used in creating the application demonstrations.},
