Abstract: We present a research project whose main objective is the development of a tool that facilitates the assignment of keywords to web documents. We synthesize the main characteristics and features of the tool we are constructing and analyze its theoretical basis. This line of research is motivated by the current interest in semantic technologies as a mechanism to facilitate and optimize access to information.
