The Aim of 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."
The Semantic Web, Scientific American, May 2001, Tim Berners-Lee, James Hendler and Ora Lassila
• The Semantic Web is a vision: the idea of having data on
the web defined and linked in a way that it can be used by
machines not just for display purposes, but for automation,
integration and reuse of data across various applications.

Next Generation Web?
• Evolution of Web
– HTML: Web for Display
– XML: Web with Syntax
– ?? : Web with Semantics
• Why should we embed semantics into Web?
From
– Web for Human
To
– Web for human and machines
cf. Web for machines
Hideaki Takeda / National Institute of
A brief introduction of XML
• Limitation of HTML
– Chaos by mixture of displaying and text structures
• e.g.,
– <h3></h3> should be used for “the third-level heading”, but are often
used just for bigger fonts
– <b></b> is specifying “bold” , not “emphasis”.
– Fixed Structure
• e.g.,
– If you need <h7></h7>….
– I need a structure just for my data

XML
• XML(eXtensible Markup Language)
– Can define original tags
– Represent logical structures of data
• DTD
– Do not include style information
• XST

What are specified by “person” and “name” ?
Is “name” and “名前” the same?
Is this description sufficient as a description for “person”?
…
• In short, syntax alone cannot solve these problems

How to describe “meaning”?
• Need to describe “information on information”
– “Meaning of something” is a description (“meaning”)
to a description (“something”) in computers
– Metadata
• Data about data
• Need to architecture for common understanding
– Syntax (language or scheme)
– Vocabulary (ontology)
Hideaki Takeda / National Institute of
Metadata
• What is metadata?
– Data about data
– What one can say about any information object
• What is described as metadata?
– Content relates to what the object contains or is about,
and is intrinsic to an information object.
– Context indicates the who, what, why, where, how aspects
associated with the object's creation and is extrinsic to an
information object.
– Structure relates to the formal set of associations within or
among individual information objects and can be intrinsic
or extrinsic
Setting the State, Anne J.Gilliand-Swetland, Introduction to Metadata – Pathways to Digital
Information, Murthsa Baca (ed.), Getty Information Institute.

Metadata
• Metadata to individual information objects
– Bibliography，Dublin Core
• Metadata to part or structure of information objects
– Drawings，RDF，RDFS, OWL

A Layer model for Semantic Web
RDF (Resource Description Framework)
– The most primitive model for metadata description
• SVO model
• Entity-Relation Model
• Semantic net
RDF Schema
– Addition of “concept” to RDF
• class-subclass，constraints
OWL
– More general concept description language
• Logical consistency
• Various class expressions
• Various constraints
DAML-S
– Descriptions on processes
Tim Berners-Lee http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-lcs-sweb-tbl/
Hideaki Takeda / National Institute of
RDF (Resource Description
Framework)
• A framework to describe metadata
• Separation of model and syntax
• W3C Recommendation (2004)
Hideaki Takeda / National Institute of
RDF Model
• Element
– Resource:
• URI(Universal Resource Identifier)
• Literal(string)
– No need to be specified by Web
– Property:
• Attribute when describing resources
• URI or Literal just as Resource
– Statement: triad of resource, property, and
resource

RDFS (RDF Schema)
• Stronger knowledge representation model
– RDF: ER model，semantic net
– RDF Schema: Frame model，object-oriented
paradigm
• Minimal definition
• Property-centered approach
• RDFS is defined as extension of RDF
• RDFS gives definitions of RDF descriptions

• Ontology
– Descriptions on classes
– RDFS, OWL
– Challenges for ontology building
• Ontology building is difficult by nature
– Consistency, comprehensiveness, logicality
• Alignment of ontologies is more difficult

– Descriptions on instances (individuals)
– RDF + (RDFS, OWL)
– Pros for Linked Data
• Easy to write (mainly fact description)
• Easy to link (fact to fact link)
– Cons for Linked Data
• Difficult to describe complex structures
• Still need for class description (-> ontology)

Linked Data is “Web of Data”
– Data published as RDF
– Can refer from outside
• The four rules for Linked Data
Hideaki Takeda / National Institute of
Linked Data
• The four rules for Linked Data
– Use URIs as names for things
• Give a URI to every object in the world!
– Use HTTP URIs so that people can look up those names.
• Don’t use URN
– When someone looks up a URI, provide useful information, using the
standards (RDF, SPARQL)
• Provide machine-readable data for URI
– Include links to other URIs. so that they can discover more things.
• Make data linked together just like Web

RDFa
• Add extra structured content to the (X)HTML
pages
– adds new (X)HTML/XML attributes
• “RDF in attributes”
– Programs can extract those and turn into RDF
– Flexibility for using Literals and URI resources
Hideaki Takeda / National Institute of
Principles of RDFa
• RDF contents are defined through XML
attributes (no elements)
• XML/HTML tree structure is used
• Varios attributes are defined by RDFa
– Some attributes (@href, @rel) are also reused
• The text content can be also reused
