Scoring methods are highly reliant on mathematics but what do the numbers really mean? W3C semantic standards allow us to create a more direct meaning-based model. Through set theory and description logics, we can compute classification and ranking through ontological-based reasoning. This method finally addresses the multiple viewpoints and perspectives often found within a large enterprise.
