  • What is meant by "semantic" in Semantic Web is not that computers are going to understand the meaning of anything, but that the logical pieces of meaning can be mechanically manipulated by a machine to useful human ends.

  Metadata RDF

  • RDF was originally created in 1999 as a standard on top of XML for encoding metadata--literally, data about data. Metadata is, of course, things like who authored a web page, what date a blog entry was published, etc., information that is in some sense secondary to some other content already on the regular web. Since then, and perhaps especially after the updated RDF spec in 2004, the scope of RDF has really evolved into something greater. The most exciting uses of RDF aren't in encoding information about web resources, but information about and relations between things in the real world: people, places, concepts, etc.

  • he current web is a decentralized platform for distributed presentations, while the SemWeb is a decentralized platform for distributed knowledge.
  • Resource Description Framework (RDF) is the W3C standard for encoding knowledge.
  • The real content, the knowledge the files are conveying to the human, is opaque to the computer.
  • What is meant by "semantic" in Semantic Web is not that computers are going to understand the meaning of anything, but that the logical pieces of meaning can be mechanically manipulated by a machine to useful human ends.
  • Files on the Semantic Web need to be able to express information flexibly.
  • Life can't be neatly packed into tables, as in relational databases or hierarchies, as in XML.

    Building the Semantic Web

      

    On the Semantic Web (SemWeb), computers do the browsing (and searching, and querying, and...) for us. The SemWeb enables computers to seek out knowledge distributed throughout the Web, mesh it, and then take action based on it. Take an analogy: the current web is a decentralized platform for distributed presentations, while the SemWeb is a decentralized platform for distributed knowledge. Resource Description Framework (RDF) is the W3C standard for encoding knowledge.

  RDF stands for Resource Description Framework. RDF is built for the Web, but let's leave the Web behind for now and think about how we find things in the real world.
