New Rug Design Classification Using Classification Schemes

Classification facilitates the communication between those with a unified specialty, especially the scientific researchers; to use into equations or in models, in the industrialize field people needs to govern to a unified classification, so they can deal in the same terms (Vanda broughton, P. 21). Some of the authors see that some rug classification systems are not purely approach wholly satisfactory (Mercedes Viale Ferrero, p. 6). The major purpose of the classification is to group or to collocate, subjects that are related in some way (Vanda broughton, P. 21). Since classifying rugs and carpets can be done according to a number of criteria; their country of origin, weaving group, design, colors, materials, price (L. Allane, P: 10.), so it is important to make benefit of classification tools, like classification schemes, which has many benefits; It allows a user to find an individual object quickly on the basis of its class or group. It conveys semantics of an object from the definition of its kind. So the main objective of this research is to develop new hierarchical classification schemes for the rug and carpets which based mainly on rug design terminologies and the country of origin, the researcher hopes these hierarchies will help researchers, designers, engineers and marketers, especially in the field of rug industry, and be a good reference.
