WHAT IS SEMANTIC WEB?
The Semantic Web is the extension of the World Wide Web that enables people to share content beyond the boundaries of
applications and websites. It has been described in rather different ways: as a utopic vision, as a web of data, or merely as a natural
paradigm shift in our daily use of the Web. Most of all, the Semantic Web has inspired and engaged many people to create innovative
semantic technologies and applications.

SEMANTIC WEB TECHNOLOGIES
• OWL (Web Ontology Language) – Use to Represent
Knowledge in Semantic Web Applications• Eg – Egg is a Concept. Egg has 6g of Protein.
• RDF/RDFS (Resource Description Framework) – Data Modelling Language for Semantic Web. All data are stored as RDF triples• Eg – <domain:Egg> < domain:has> <domain:Protein>
• SPARQL (SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language) – Used to Query RDF DatasetsSource – http://www.semanticfocus.com/blog/entry/title/introduction-to-the-semantic-web-vision-and-technologies-part-1-overview/

APPLICATIONS OF SEMANTIC WEB
• Widely Known Applications• Google Knowledge Graph• IBM Watson• Apple’s SIRI
• Developed at Kno.e.sis• Twitris and many others
