Abstract from downloadable PDF: Data on the Semantic Web is semi-structured and does not follow one fixed schema. Faceted browsing is a natural technique for navigating such data, partitioning the information space into orthogonal conceptual dimensions.
The Semantic Web is expected to provide more benefits to software engineering. Over the past five years there have been a number of attempts to bring together languages and tools, such as the UML, developed for Software Engineering with Semantic Web langu
The world of the semantic web, as based on RDF, is really simple at the base. This article shows you how to get started. It uses a simplified teaching language -- Notation 3 or N3 -- which is basically equivalent to RDF in its XML syntax, but easier to sc
RDF--the Resource Description Framework--is a universal format for data on the Web. Using a simple relational model, it allows structured and semi-structured data to be mixed, exported and shared accross different applications. RDF data describe all sorts
This document is not intended to teach you RDF via my own words, but rather to hand-hold you through the "good" parts of the same journey I took. If it looks like a big link-list with menial comments from the peanut gallery, then you're not far off the ma
"Many people have told me this week that they think 'Web 2.0' has not been very impressive so far and that they really hope for a next-generation of the Web with some more significant innovation under the hood -- regardless of what it's called. A lot of p
Very cool Semantic Web use case Demo via Piggy Bank's sever component called "Semantic Bank". These complimentary projects are part of the MIT SMILE project. As you can see Web 2.0 and the Semantic Web are mutually inclusive paradigms as reemphasized
Semantic Interoperability of Metadata and Information in unLike Environments. SIMILE is focused on developing robust, open source tools based on Semantic Web technologies that improve access, management and reuse among digital assets. SIMILE is a joint p
Piggy Bank can collect “pure” information in the following cases: The web page has invisible link(s) to RDF data (encoded in RDF/XML or RDF/N3 formats). One of Piggy Bank's "screen scrapers" matches the current URL. A screen scraper is small Javasc
