Semantic Web

Semantic Web

A collaboration of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and others to provide a standard for defining data on the Web. The Semantic Web uses XML tags that conform to Resource Description Framework and Web Ontology Language formats (see RDF and OWL).

Fewer Results - More Meaning
Sometimes called "Web 3.0," the goal of the Semantic Web is to identify Web-based data so that searches can be more effective. As information on the Web grows, search engines routinely return thousands of results when, very often, only a handful truly qualify as meaningful for the query presented. Wading through countless results has turned people into research analysts whether they were ready for the task or not. For more information, visit www.w3.org/2001/sw. See Semantic Web vs. Dataweb, RDF and semantics.
