Semantic Web

The Semantic Web represents a stage of evolution in the World Wide Web. It extends the web to make published information and data machine-readable, exchangeable, and usable between systems. Information is enriched with explicit meanings and supplemental details, allowing both humans and machines to recognize the meaning, context, and broader connections of the data (the semantics).

The Semantic Web is based on knowledge modeling and knowledge representation (for a knowledge domain).

Tim Berners-Lee (founder of the World Wide Web) described his proposal in 2001 as follows: „The Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation“.
