Innovations and implications are presented and discussed, with particular attention to the developments that have been implemented toensure that thesauri become fully interoperable technically and linguistically, so that all the advantages that they offer in an increasingly globalized and interconnected environment can be promoted, offering their strengths to the Semantic Web project.
