  <description><![CDATA[Semantic Web languages are being used to represent, encode and
exchange semantic data in many contexts beyond the Web -- in
databases, multiagent systems, mobile computing, and ad hoc networking
environments.  The core paradigm, however, remains what we call the
{em Web aspect} of the Semantic Web -- its use by independent and
distributed agents who publish and consume data on the World Wide Web.
To better understand this central use case, we have harvested and
analyzed a collection of...]]></description>

describe ELVIS (the Ecosystem Location Visualization and

In this paper, we show how Swoogle collects the metadata from Semantic Web document to build a global picture of the Semantic Web. We also show the database schema that stores the metadata, and use an example Semantic Web document to explain how the metadata has been extracted and stored.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The Semantic Web was invented by Tim Berners-Lee in 1998 as a web of data for machine consumption. Its applicability in supporting real world applications on the World Wide Web, however, remains unclear to this day because most existing works treat the Semantic Web as one universal RDF graph and ignore the Web aspect. In fact, the Semantic Web is distributed on the Web as a web of belief: each piece of Semantic Web data is independently published on the Web as a certain agent's belief instead...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Swoogle is a system that helps knowledge engineers and software agents find knowledge on the web encoded in the semantic web languages RDF and OWL.  Based on the search mechanisms provided in the previous version, we propose a novel semantic web navigation model and refine mechanisms for ranking the semantic web at various granularities. Although the semantic web is materialized on the Web, it is hard to navigate within the semantic web since few explicit ``hyperlinks'' are available besides ...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Tracking the provenance of an RDF graph requires
finding all supporting sources and rejecting all irrelevant ones, but
neither RDF document nor triple is appropriate. Therefore, we approach
this goal using lossless decomposition of RDF graph at RDF molecule
granularity, which is the finest and lossless sub-graph of an RDF
graph. We also implements three decomposition strategies a prototype
RDF graph provenance service covering 50M real world triples collected

the representation, development and use of ontologies but paid
less attention to the social and structural relationships involved.
The past year has seen a dramatic increase in the amount of

vocabulary, providing a valuable resource for investigating how
early Semantic Web adopters use this technology as well as

  <description><![CDATA[Varish Mulwad will present an overview on "Semantic Web Search Engines: Research problems" in this week's ebiquity meeting (10:00am Wednesday 4/15/2009, ITE325b).  Here's the abstract.

Today's traditional Information retrieval systems are not "intelligent" enough to retrieve the data on the Semantic Web. Thus there is a need for specialized search engines which can search the Semantic Web.

This week's talk will cover a number of Semantic Web search engines which include Swoogle, Sindice...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The Semantic Web language RDF was designed to unambiguously define and use ontologies to encode data and knowledge on the Web. Many people find it difficult, however, to write complex RDF statements and queries because doing so requires familiarity with the appropriate ontologies and the terms they define. We describe a system that suggests appropriate RDF terms given semantically related English words and general domain and context information. We use the Swoogle Semantic Web search engine t...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Web search engines like Google have made us all smarter by providing ready access to the world's knowledge whenever we need to look up a fact, learn about a topic or evaluate opinions. The W3C's Semantic Web effort aims to make such knowledge more accessible to computer programs by publishing it in machine understandable form.

As the volume of Semantic Web data grows software agents will need their own search engines to help them find the relevant and trustworthy knowledge they need to per...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The Semantic Web is coined by Tim Berners-Lee in 1998 as a web of data
for machine consumption. Its applicability in supporting real world
applications on the World Wide Web, however, remains unclear to this day
mainly because its Web aspect has been neglected in past research.  Most
existing works usually model the Semantic Web as one universal RDF
graph, and they either ignore the storage layer or investigate ad hoc
storage layers (e.g. databases and peer-to-peer systems) other than t...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The Semantic Web can be viewed as a collection of RDF graphs serialized by RDF documents that distributed in the Web. Its utility depends on three issues: availability (existence of data), accessibility (users can retrieve the data they want), and quality (users can judge the quality of the retrieved data). While more data are available in the Semantic Web, the latter two issues are often ignored or circumscribed due to lacking of tools and mechanisms. This dissertation proposes an ontology-b...]]></description>
