The semantic web is…
A vision for the future web (a ‘web of meaning’ - semantics) Not a separate web but an extension of the current one Better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation Machine reasoning will be ubiquitous and powerful
An emerging set of standards, markup languages, and related processing tools
A rolling snowball Interest and momentum is building fast - heads up!
Currently under the direction of Tim Berners-Lee (a.k.a. “father of the Web”) http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/
The Semantic Web Activity

A $2 billion per year market and projected to grow to over $50 billion by the year 2010. Leading analysts have estimated that 35-65% of our System Integration costs are due to Semantic issues. – source: SemTech 2006, http://www.semantic-conference.com/

Resource Description Framework (RDF) The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a standard for
describing resources (anything we can identify). Describes resources in terms of nodes and arcs

Notable points
Distributed Extensibility Different sites may contribute data about a particular resource We can all extend the cumulative knowledge on the Semantic Web about
any resource in a distributed fashion
• A version of RSS, the famous syndication (content feeds) format is a sub-set of RDF
• IBM case-in-point:• The new RSS Consumer being developed for WebSphere Web Content
Management (WCM) leverages the extensibility of RDF to add special elements into the standard RSS.
• This allows for integration with other Content Management Systems like Interwoven and Vignette.

Ontology
A formal way to organize knowledge and terms. Typically represented as graphical relationships or networks, as opposed to
taxonomies which are usually represented hierarchically. Defines a domain of knowledge
The objects that exist in that domain The properties those objects can have The relationships those objects and their properties can have to other objects and
properties (in the same domain or across domains)
What are the differences between a vocabulary, a taxonomy, a thesaurus, an ontology, and a meta-model? See: http://www.metamodel.com/article.php?story=20030115211223271
“An ontology is an explicit specification of a conceptualization.” - T. R. Gruber
(…whatever…)

OWL Web Ontology Language
Designed for use by applications that need to process the content of information instead of just presenting information to humans.
Has three increasingly-expressive sublanguages: OWL Lite, OWL DL, and OWL Full.
OWL adds more vocabulary for describing properties and classes on top of RDF. Example: Disjointness
Man and Woman are Disjoint Classes. Joan is an instance of Woman => Joan is not an instance of Man.
Cardinality Person has exactly one value for the property hasBirthMother
Equality Bill Clinton is sameAs William Jefferson Clinton
Symmetry Frank is a friend of Deborah => Deborah is a friend of Frank.
Yep…the acronym should be ‘WOL’, but
the creators thought
‘OWL’ was much cooler.

Some Lessons Learned
No “right” way to model an ontology. Depends upon the end-use cases you have in mind Depends on whether you intend to reason (engine) and auto-classify Depends on personal preferences 1-2 weeks of playing with Protégé and learning about OWL Rebuilt ontology up to 3 times before starting to code
Wanted a dynamic model so that you can change ontology only without recoding application Ended up generating Java objects from ontology using Protégé OWL’s Java code generation
feature (lazy, I guess) Totally dynamic model is still doable (perhaps I should have used Jena OWL API?) Need more
time.
Ontology + auto generate Java model + Java Server Faces + Rational = Drag and drop development and very little code!
Discovered IBM Research projects after-the-fact Wish I would have used our stuff; some of it is very cool
Total time = 2 months learning and experimenting (off-time) Now “I get it”…and want to start over.

Ready for prime time?
Data modeling YES Ontology-based approach to data modeling is highly beneficial
Horizontal integration (breaking down "silos") YES, sort of… The tools are there, but they aren’t baked in to many enterprise products Concepts may be “too new” for customer comfort Opportunity for IBM to take a stronger leadership role.
Machine-driven interpretation (i.e. inference, rules engines, etc.) NO Not mature, slow, or based on rapidly evolving standards A big pill to swallow at first; learn the basics before getting into inference, rules, and
reasoning.
CONCLUSION: “Semantic Web” as a concept may not be ready for prime time, but it is ready for
our attention Many semantic web technologies are mature and immediately beneficial Learning curve is rather steep (or I’m slow) – get started!

Imagine…
A web that computers (not just humans) can understand. Intelligent search, augmented search, automated search Better enterprise application integration
Integration at the data layer rather than the API layer – reduced programming Universal data exchange Automatic and ad hoc configuration Better service discovery “Serendipitous interoperability” (interoperability under unchoreographed conditions) Semantics can bring us closer to the vision of SOA
Example: WebSphere Process Server looks up best service based on the semantic descriptions rather than calling service directly.
Semantics can give us better On Demand Workplaces Better ways to integrate the “thousand tribes” intranet into one comprehensive, yet personalized web portal
Improved Systems and Software Engineering Model Driven Architectures (using ontology approach to models) One example: http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/BestPractices/SE/ODA/ See also:
