9. Semantic Technologies: Diamond in the Rough?9/25 Resource Description Framework (RDF) W3C recommendation (http://www.w3.org/RDF) RDF is graphical formalism ( + XML syntax + semantics) for representing metadata for describing the semantics of information in a machine- accessible way RDF is a basic ontology language Resources are described in terms of properties and property values using RDF statements. Statements are represented as triples, consisting of a subject, predicate and object. [S, P, O] Josef UniK hasAffiliation http://www.unik.no hasHomePage Josef Noll hasName

11. Semantic Technologies: Diamond in the Rough?11/25 Web Ontology Language (OWL) Built on top of RDF(S) and renaming DAML+OIL primitives Three layers: OWL Lite: a small subset, easier for frame-based tools to transition to, easier reasoning OWL DL: description logic, decidable reasoning OWL Full: RDF extension, allows meta-classes Several syntaxes: Abstract syntax: easier to read and write manually, closely corresponds to DL RDF/XML: OWL can be parsed as an RDF document, more verbose
