Semantic Web Last modified: Thursday, November 01, 2007
An extension of the current Web that provides an easier way to find, share, reuse and combine information more easily. It is based on machine-readable information and builds on XML technology's capability to define customized tagging schemes and RDF's (Resource Description Framework) flexible approach to representing data. The Semantic Web provides  common formats for interchange of data (where on the Web there is only had interchange of documents). It also provides a common language for recording how the data relates to real world objects, allowing a person, or a machine, to start off in one database, and then move through an unending set of databases which are connected not by wires but by being about the same thing.

Integrating Applications on the Semantic Web  The Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation. It is based on the idea of having data on the Web defined and linked such that it can be used for more effective discovery, automation, integration, and reuse across various applications. Semantic Web  The voice of Semantic Web technology. SmartMenu: Getting the Browser to Understand  As soon as we bookmark something the semantics is lost. How do we get the browser to know the link represents a movie we liked or a glass of wine we enjoyed? W3C Semantic Web  The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries. It is a collaborative effort led by W3C with participation from a large number of researchers and industrial partners. What Is the Resource Description Framework?  You might be familiar with RDF as a technology for describing resources like images, audio, and video. However, take a deeper look into its core model, syntax and features to see how this framework is shaping the semantic web. Semantic Web History: Nodes and Arcs 1989-1999 This is a work in progress, and an early release of the document for feedback from the RDF Interest Group. It is intended as an informal discussion document, and is not a formal publication of any working group, or of the W3C itself. The Semantic Web The Semantic Web will bring structure to the meaningful content of Web pages, creating an environment where software agents roaming from page to page can readily carry out sophisticated tasks for users.
