A short introduction to Semantic Web - 2012
The document provides an introduction to the semantic web, explaining that it aims to allow computers to interpret data on the internet by modeling information and relationships between data using metadata and implicit deductions, which will enable machines to better understand context, answer questions, and accomplish tasks without human involvement. It discusses how explicit metadata standards like RDF and implicit deductions are used to build semantic models and provides examples of how semantic searching and aggregation of content can be more useful than traditional methods.
