Decision support in the information maintenance of individual education trajectory based on ontological models and distributed RDF-storage

Abstract

The article considers the problem of decision support in the information maintenance of individual education trajectory. The development of algorithms and software for processes automating in educational systems requires a special approach. The use of ontological models makes it possible to unify the description of the elements of educational systems and apply the technology of digital footprints when managing business processes in educational systems. An ontological model for managing educational trajectories is proposed. An algorithm has also been developed to compare competence-based models of curricula using latent-semantic analysis. The proposed models and methods are implemented as a distributed software system using the semantic web approach on the basis of distributed RDF-storage. The effectiveness of the developed algorithms and software solutions is demonstrated by the example of academic mobility in Ufa State Aviation Technical University. Prospects for further research in this area are outlined.
