Thanks for sharing this link Sohan, its an interesting approach. Since you have effectively defined what you mean by Semantic Search, there are couple other approaches I know of to do something like this: 1) preprocess your documents looking for terms that co-occur in the same document. The more such cooccurrences you find the more strongly these terms are related (can help with ordering related terms from most related to least related). At query time expand the query to include /most/ related concepts and search. 2) use an external knowledgebase such as a taxonomy that indicates relationships between concepts (this is the approach we use). At query time expand the query to include related concepts and search.
