Abstract :
In order to meet the demand of agricultural materials exchange online for farmers, an agricultural materials exchange platform based on ontology is designed and implemented. A matchmaking algorithm is presented which uses semantic vector space model to determine the match between agricultural materials seekers and advertisers. A matchmaking model is proposed based on OWL. Finally an architecture based on ASP.NET and the system functional modules is designed and implemented. For farmers, the Agricultural Materials Exchange Platform (AMEP) is simple and easy-to-use.
