Abstract

In the last years the use of ontologies has broaden to areas that until some time ago were unthinkable, like storytelling or context/content representation. The main problem with the use of ontologies is that the user responsible of authoring the story needs to input every single element that is required for the story to make sense. Depending on the case, this might be a tedious task. However, once it is done, different stories can be developed by reusing the already defined concepts. The objective of the paper is to provide examples of applications where the use of ontologies conveyed “authoring effort” with satisfactory results. We also state our opinion of why is it better to use ontologies for such tasks, explain our own experience with an use case and propose ideas of what could be enhanced, or taken from other areas, to improve the authoring process.
