商品描述

Description:

The development of the Semantic Web, with machine-readable content, has the potential to revolutionize the World Wide Web and its use. A Semantic Web Primer provides an introduction and guide to this emerging field, describing its key ideas, languages, and technologies. Suitable for use as a textbook or for self-study by professionals, it concentrates on undergraduate-level fundamental concepts and techniques that will enable readers to proceed with building applications on their own. It includes exercises, project descriptions, and annotated references to relevant online materials. A Semantic Web Primer is the only available book on the Semantic Web to include a systematic treatment of the different languages (XML, RDF, OWL, and rules) and technologies (explicit metadata, ontologies, and logic and inference) that are central to Semantic Web development. The book also examines such crucial related topics as ontology engineering and application scenarios.

After an introductory chapter, topics covered in succeeding chapters include XML and related technologies that support semantic interoperability; RDF and RDF Schema, the standard data model for machine-processable semantics; and OWL, the W3C-approved standard for a Web ontology language more extensive than RDF Schema; rules, both monotonic and nonmonotonic, in the framework of the Semantic Web; selected application domains and how the Semantic Web would benefit them; the development of ontology-based systems; and current debates on key issues and predictions for the future.

Grigoris Antoniou is Professor at the University of Bremen, Germany.

Frank van Harmelen is Professor in the Department of Artificial Intelligence at the Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

描述:



語義網的發展,具有機器可讀的內容,有潛力革命化全球資訊網及其使用方式。《語義網入門》提供了對這一新興領域的介紹和指南,描述了其關鍵思想、語言和技術。適合作為教科書或專業人士自學使用,它專注於本科水平的基本概念和技術,使讀者能夠自行開發應用程序。它包含練習題、項目描述和對相關在線資料的註釋參考。《語義網入門》是唯一一本涵蓋語義網發展的不同語言(XML、RDF、OWL和規則)和技術(明確元數據、本體論和邏輯和推理)的系統性著作。該書還探討了本體工程和應用場景等重要相關主題。

在介紹章節之後,接下來的章節涵蓋了支持語義互操作性的XML和相關技術;RDF和RDF Schema,作為機器可處理語義的標準數據模型;以及OWL,作為比RDF Schema更全面的W3C認可的Web本體語言;語義網框架中的單調和非單調規則;選定的應用領域及語義網對其的益處;本體基礎系統的開發;以及關鍵問題的當前辯論和未來預測。

Grigoris Antoniou是德國不來梅大學的教授。

Frank van Harmelen是荷蘭阿姆斯特丹自由大學人工智能系的教授。
