Abstract: With the exponential and rapid growth of online resources in recent years, there has been a huge increase in the use of search engines; these are also one of the most common ways to navigate the Web content without taking into account, in general, the request meaning by which was successfully added the user’s webpage provides us with a lot of results. This problem has led to the integration of semantics in the search for information on the Web (Semantic Web). The use of semantic tools, such as ontology, WordNet dictionary, semantic similarity measure, etc., has contributed to the semantic search development and more particularly, semantic Metan-search. The success of semantic search is closely linked to the availability of domain ontologies. The objective of this paper is to propose a double model of repetitive semantic search, called Double Metan-Semantic Search Model (2∞n-SSM). On the one hand, it is assisted and based on the concepts extracted from the user’s search domain ontology, which will permit the user to choose a concept from this list of concepts and launch their search; on the other hand, it is free, in that the user enters their own concept and launches their search. This is based on WordNet tool, user’s same search domain ontology and the semantic similarity calculation techniques between concepts in the same ontology. The result of this model is a set of URL links. The term Metan indicates that the search is done in depth (∞n-SS) via choosing each time a URL result by the user. Its experimentation in the asthma disease field gave very promising results in quantity and quality of information via the URL link results (semantic support).
