The Semantic Web combines the descriptive languages RDF (Resource Description Framework) and OWL (Web Ontology Language), with the data-centric, customizable XML (eXtensible Mark-up Language) to provide descriptions of the content of Web documents. These machine-interpretable descriptions allow more intelligent software systems to be written, automating the analysis and exploitation of web-based information. Software agents will be able to create automatically new services from already published services, with potentially huge implications for models of e-Business. Semantic Web Technologies provides a comprehensive overview of key semantic knowledge technologies and research. The authors explain (semi-)automatic ontology generation and metadata extraction in depth, along with ontology management and mediation. Further chapters examine how Semantic Web technology is being applied in knowledge management (“Semantic Information Access”) and in the next generation of Web services. Semantic Web Technologies: Provides a comprehensive exposition of the state-of-the art in Semantic Web research and key technologies. Explains the use of ontologies and metadata to achieve machine-interpretability. Describes methods for ontology learning and metadata generation. Discusses ontology management and evolution, covering ontology change detection and propagation, ontology dependency and mediation. Illustrates the theoretical concepts with three case studies on industrial applications in digital libraries, the legal sector and the telecommunication industry. Graduate and advanced undergraduate students, academic and industrial researchers in the field will all find Semantic Web Technologies an essential guide to the technologies of the Semantic Web.

After years of mostly theoretical research, Semantic Web Technologies are now reaching out into application areas like bioinformatics, eCommerce, eGovernment, or Social Webs. Applications like genomic ontologies, semantic web services, automated catalogue alignment, ontology matching, or blogs and social networks are constantly increasing, often driven or at least backed up by companies like Google, Amazon, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn and others. The need to leverage the potential of combining information in a meaningful way in order to be able to benefit from the Web will create further demand for and interest in Semantic Web research. This movement, based on the growing maturity of related research results, necessitates a reliable reference source from which beginners to the field can draw a first basic knowledge of the main underlying technologies as well as state-of-the-art application areas. This handbook, put together by three leading authorities in the field, and supported by an advisory board of highly reputed researchers, fulfils exactly this need. It is the first dedicated reference work in this field, collecting contributions about both the technical foundations of the Semantic Web as well as their main usage in other scientific fields like life sciences, engineering, business, or education.

This work explores the potential applications of semantic web and knowledge management technologies for e-learning systems for accessing courses. It particularly addresses the difficult problem of reusing existing resources. In this scope, we propose a methodology and an associated system (QBLS) relying on cutting-edge semantic web tools and formalisms, that particularly develops three aspects: Reusing existing pedagogical resources through a process called "semantization". Pedagogical content is semi-automatically annotated with ontological concepts, from several points of view (domain, pedagogy, structure). It aims at contextualizing the material with regard to the teacher's conceptualization and pedagogical strategy. Exploiting annotated pedagogical resources in dynamic web interfaces. We show how semantic web technologies efficiently perform inferences based on ontological knowledge to personalize and adapt courses. The interest of semantic web standards (OWL, RDF, SPARQL) is highlighted in a practical perspective, relying on the deployment of the semantic search engine Corese. Tracking learner activity and analysis of this activity. We explore the potential of graphic based visualization and inferences to manually or automatically analyze activity traces on a semantized course. The theoretical proposal is supported by our implementation of the Question Based Learning System where learning resources available on the web are reused, annotated and exploited in real world experiments using semantic web technologies. The practical examples mentioned in this work are illustrated by two experiments conducted at the EPU of Nice Sophia-Antipolis.
