Topic: Web Ontology Language


  
 Web Ontology Language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
OWL is an acronym for Web Ontology Language, a markup language for publishing and sharing data using ontologies on the Internet.
OWL is a vocabulary extension of the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and is derived from the DAML+OIL Web Ontology Language.
Together with RDF and other components, these tools make up the Semantic Web project.

 OWL Web Ontology Language Use Cases and Requirements
Ontologies may need to change because there were errors in prior versions, because a new way of modeling the domain is preferred, or because new terminology has been created (e.g., as the result of the invention of new technology).
Ontologies figure prominently in the emerging Semantic Web as a way of representing the semantics of documents and enabling the semantics to be used by web applications and intelligent agents.
Ontologies can be used by automated tools to power advanced services such as more accurate web search, intelligent software agents and knowledge management.

 OWL Web Ontology Language 1.0 Abstract Syntax
The W3C Web Ontology Working Group (WebOnt) is tasked with producing a web ontology language extending the reach of XML, RDF, and RDF Schema.
The OWL Web Ontology Language is being designed by the W3C Web Ontology Working Group as a revision of the DAML+OIL web ontology language.
An OWL ontology is a sequence of axioms and facts, plus inclusion references to other ontologies, which are considered to be included in the ontology.

 Formal Ontology and Philosophical Content on the Semantic Web
These languages are designed with computational tractability in mind, and hence, expressively, are sublanguages of full FOL.
Critical to the success of the Semantic Web will be the development of software agents that can extract content from the web in response to complex queries by reasoning upon its explicit, canonical content.
Ontologies are explicit representations of this sort of higher-level background information, and are thus crucial to the evolution of the Semantic Web.

 Web ontology language requirements w.r.t expressiveness of taxononomy
But rules are required for representing the deductive knowledge (dependencies between relations) and to support several tasks (ontology construction, maintenance, verification, query of heterogeneous distributed information sources).
An important issue is to know whether Web ontology languages, meet the expected requirements of expressiveness and reasoning.
It draws conclusions about the requirements that a Web ontology language should meet for the representation of medical taxonomy and axioms.

 OWL flies as Web ontology language InfoWorld News 2003-08-19 By Paul Krill
While earlier languages have been used to develop tools and ontologies for specific user communities such as sciences, they were not compatible with the architecture of the World Wide Web in general, in particular the Semantic Web, said W3C.
According to the W3C, OWL is a language for defining structured Web-based ontologies that enable richer integration and interoperability of data across application boundaries.
"Essentially, an ontology is the definition of a set of terms and how they relate to each other for a particular domain and that can be used on the Web in a number of different ways," said Jim Hendler, co-chairman of the W3C Web Ontology Working Group, which released OWL.

 Web Ontology Language
An essential building block for the Semantic Web is the Web Ontology Language (nicknamed OWL), which describes classes and relationships between classes for web documents and applications.
The objective of the Semantic Web architecture is to provide machine processing of web information on a global scale.
This application offers an early entry into the tool development area for the emerging Semantic Web.

 Options for the Web Ontology Language
a) The syntax for the Web Ontology Language could be the same as the syntax for RDF and RDFS.
The model theory of the Web Ontology Language might sanction the inferences involving classes or other constructs that do not show up in a knowledge base.
As well, the Web Ontology Language might have several sub-languages, either formally or informally identified.

 bibTeX Definition in Web Ontology Language (OWL) Version 0.1
As the semantic web grows, there is the need for more and more formal ontology definitions in standard languages such as the Web Ontology Language (OWL) of the World Wide Web Consortium.
RDF documents that use the bibTeX ontology should use this rather than the actual URL to the file, which currently is http://visus.mit.edu/bibtex/0.1/bibtex.owl.
The goal is for this (and the subsequent modifications) to become the standard way of marking up bibliographic data in the semantic web.

He has worked on Semantic Web and XML research projects that have resulted in the development of Semantic Web ontologies and XML-based data interchange formats.
He was the Principal Investigator for DRC's DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) Semantic Web research effort.
OWL is the new way to represent information on the Web.

 XML Reference Guide > OWL: Web Ontology Language
In this section, we'll look at the various pieces that are necessary to translate this information into Web Ontology Language, or OWL.
The first thing you have to understand is that on the Semantic Web, OWL information is represented as RDF/XML information, but that doesn't mean that we're only dealing with
There's a whole lot more to defining ontologies with OWL than I could ever show you in just one section of this guide, so please check out the resources for more information on the power of this language.

First, the author presents a brief history of the web and explains the concept of the "semantic web." In order to have computers understand web contents and do the corresponding processing of the understood information, such contents cannot be within HTML or XML tags that are only human-understandable.
It describes how the meaning of the information can be used by inference engines to support web users in finding answers to questions.
