Abstract: The paper discusses an ontology-based model for the knowledge transactions that are part of every organization, be it a university, business house, or a government department. The framework is centered on semantic web-based technologies. It uses ontologies and standards like Personal Information Model (PIMO) Ontology and Dublin Core (DC) for categorization and description of the knowledge transactions, respectively. The framework will be helpful in many ways for all kinds of organizations that wish to go in for automation.
