Abstract

This chapter develops the theoretical premises and the semantic, syntactic, and pragmatic microtheories underlying Frame-Based Terminology and the organization of specialized knowledge. It also explains how these premises have been implemented to formulate terminological definitions, model specialized knowledge concepts, create semantic networks, and design specialized knowledge resources. Conceptual modeling in knowledge resource design should capture both the micro- and macrocontexts of concepts. This not only means structuring individual term entries but also capturing the relationships between them. These relations reveal the most frequent combinations and activations of specialized knowledge units, which are indicative of some type of large-scale knowledge structure in which individual concepts are meaningfully related to each other.
