Abstract

Semantic Web promises to make the content on World Wide Web machine understandable, thus enabling creation of an agent based web where automated programs can accomplish a variety of tasks that involve interpretation of the content and are not possible with existing web technologies. As Semantic Web technologies are being adopted by the industry at a rapid place, there is the need to develop awareness among developer community about components of typical Semantic Web applications and principles driving the design of these components. This chapter gives a brief introduction to the Semantic Web and components common to all Semantic Web applications. The common components include ontology development, content annotation, and information extraction using reasoning. Basic design principles and available alternative choices are highlighted for ontology construction and content annotation. Reasoning component is not discussed because stable reasoners are available such as RACER, FaCT++ and Pallet and any Semantic Web application can make use of them without having to reinvent the wheel. A running example is used to enhance understandability of the concepts described.
