Semantic models and services for conservation and restoration of cultural heritage: a comprehensive survey
by Efthymia Moraitou, Yannis Christodoulou and George Caridakis
re-submitted after swj2900, swj2817, and swj2647
This paper is the third resubmission of a work that surveys sixteen projects of Semantic Web approaches to Conservation and Restoration (CnR). It addresses their coverage, the re-use of existing models, their deployment, and aims at promoting the creation of an encompassing model to support decision making.
The paper briefly summarizes the scopes concerning CnR, namely administration, materials & technology, alteration, investigation, intervention, and, after mentioning some general models (that curiously include ArCo, which seems not to in use in any CnR model afterwards). Then, it lists subsections, each describing one of the 16 models. Presentations are consistent, more or less balanced, and likely comprehensive (at least to my knowledge).
The survey is oriented to researchers and practitioners in the CnR field, with an interest in SW models.
The presentation is clear, and suitable for an audience who has a general interest into the Cultural heritage domain.
Probably some performance aspects of the deployments could have been of some interest for the broader Semantic Web community.
The authors do not include an electronic resource for having an easy access to the metadata of the several models. This would have been useful to the interested readers.
A word-level revision should be carried out before publication. There are some repetitions and some ungrammatical constructions. Check the two examples here, respectively.
"The expert conducts investigation during the first stage of the CnR process but also in later stages for =conducting= risk evaluation and for identifying the appropriate solutions."
