The main purpose of this paper is to introduce design of technology information search system for national fusion reactor based on RDF/XML.This paper is organized as follows; in ch1 RDF and RDFS are briefly described. Also The RDF modeling procedure associated with the RDF/XML syntax is given. In ch2, the design of engineering information search system is presented. Finally the conclusions will be given.
