  1. KM and Semantic Web Anuj Nanavati

  2. Objective • Introduction • Semantic Web components • Framework for KM on semantic Web • Impacts of semantic Web on KM • Technologies • RDF • Discussion

  3. Semantic Web • “The Semantic Web is a project that intends to create a universal medium for information exchange by giving meaning (semantics), in a manner understandable by machines, to the content of documents on the Web. It extends the ability of the Web through the use of standards, markup languages and related processing tools”. – wikipedia • Thought up by Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the WWW, URIs, HTTP, and HTML • An extension to the current Web • Currently under control of w3c

  4. Semantic Web Components • Expressing meaning • Knowledge representation • Ontologies • Agents

  5. Expressing Meaning • Today's Web is for people not for computers • Document for people and information for agents • In semantic Web Information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation • Anything can link to anything, no limitations on content and information • Decentralized ???

  6. Knowledge Representation • Access to • Structured collection of information • Sets of inference rules • Automated reasoning • Semantic Web to provide a language for expressing data and rules for reasoning about the data • Describing complex Web objects without tricking agents

  7. Ontologies • Document that defines relation among terms • Taxonomy • Classes and subclasses of objects • Relation among them • Inference rules to express relation • Meaning of terms on a Web page can be defined by pointers from the page to an ontology • Answer indirect complicated questions

  8. Agents • Software programs • Transfer semantic data among themselves • Service discovery through common unifying language • Exchanging ontologies • Bootstraping by discovering new ontologies • Services • Trusted: proofs, digital signatures • searching

  9. Framework for KM on the Semantic Web

  10. Impact of Semantic Web on KM • Coordination between knowledge and workings of humans with software agents • Precision in searching for knowledge • Indexing using ontology-based statements • Problem relevant knowledge retrieval • Joining various subcultures ???

  11. How? • XML: Extensible markup language • Basic doc structure with no semantic • Structure to the data • RDF: Resource description framework • RSS: Really simple syndication • URI: Uniform resource identifier • DAML: DARPA agent markup language • vCal and vCard

  12. authored-by Article URL Author Resource Description Framework - RDF • Representing information about resources • Language for ontologies • Any resource – not only content • Resources represented by URIs • 3 structural part of a RDF statement • Subject • Object • Predicate: relation • “The article is authored by the author”

  13. Discussion Questions • Role of AI in semantic Web • Issues • Security • Privacy • Intellectual property • Need for humans?
