Research Report: Semantic Web

Mining Depth: documents
  • Semantic Web
    • Topic Overview (from en.wikipedia.org): The Semantic Web Ping Service is a notification service for the Semantic Web that tracks the creation and modification of RDF based data sources on the Web. It provides Web Services for loosely coupled monitoring of RDF data. In addition, it provides a breakdown of RDF data sources tracked by vocabulary that includes: SIOC, FOAF, DOAP, RDFS, and OWL.

  • RDF data
    • Topic Overview (from infomesh.net): The concept of a SEmantic Memory was first proposed by Seth Russell, who suggested that personal database dumps of RDF that one has collected from the 'rest' of the Semantic Web (a kind of Semantic Cloud) would be imperative for maintaining a coherant view of data . For example, a SEM would most likely be partitioned into data which is inherent to the whole Semantic Web (i.e., the schemata for the major languages such as XML RDF , RDF Schema, DAML+OIL, and so on), local data which is important for any Semantic Web applications that may be running (e.g. information about the logic namespace for CWM, which is currently built in), and data that the person has personally been using, is publishing, or that has been otherwise entered into the root context of the SEM.

  • W3C Semantic Web
    • Topic Overview (from www.xml.com): Although there have been several proposals for embedding RDF inside HTML pages, the technique of using XSLT transformations has a much broader appeal. Few people want to learn RDF, and so it presents a barrier to the creation of semantically rich Web pages. Using XSLT provides a way for Web developers to add Semantic information with minimal extra effort. Dan Connolly of the W3C has conducted quite a number of experiments in this area, including HyperRDF , which extracts RDF statements from suitably marked-up XHTML pages.

  • Main Page
    • Topic Overview (from www.semanticweb.org): May 9 2008. It is now possible to subscribe to event calendars and RSS feeds of new tool releases . Links can be found on the Main Page, and in many other places. Staying up-to-date with the Semantic Web could hardly be more convenient. [More...] [Search inside document]
  • RDF Schema
    • Topic Overview (from www.w3.org): It is not clear to me exactly what primitives have to be introduced, and whether much useful language can be defined at this level without also defining the next level. There is currently a RDF Schema working group in this area. The schema language typically makes simple assertions about permitted combinations. If the SGML DTD is used as a model, the schema can be in a language of very limited power. The constraints expressed in the schema language are easily expanded into a more powerful logical layer expressions (the next layer), but one chose at this point, in order to limit the power, not to do that. For example: one can say in a schema that a property foo is unique. Expanded, that is that for any x, if y is the foo of x, and z is the foo of x, then y equals z. This uses logical expressions which are not available at this level, but that is OK so long as the schema language is, for the moment, going to be handled by specialized schema engines only, not by a general reasoning engine.

  • search engine
  • Web page
    • Topic Overview (from www.sciam.com): Pete and Lucy could use their agents to carry out all these tasks thanks not to the World Wide Web of today but rather the Semantic Web that it will evolve into tomorrow. Most of the Web's content today is designed for humans to read, not for computer programs to manipulate meaningfully. Computers can adeptly parse Web pages for layout and routine processing?here a header, there a link to another page?but in general, computers have no reliable way to process the semantics: this is the home page of the Hartman and Strauss Physio Clinic, this link goes to Dr. Hartman's curriculum vitae.

  • new relationships
    • Topic Overview (from www.w3.org): On the Semantic Web both ontologies and rules are used to express extra constraints and logical relationships among resources. An example for their usage is to help data integration when, for example, different terms are used to describe the same thing in different data sets, or when a bit of extra knowledge may lead to the discovery of new relationships.
