This notion of the Semantic Grid was first articulated in the context of e-Science, observing that such an approach is necessary to achieve a high degree of easy-to-use and seamless automation enabling flexible collaborations and computations on a global scale.

The expression ‘ Semantic Space ’ was addressed for the first time by Osgood et al ..

The first automatic system for Semantic Role Labeling ( SRL, sometimes also referred to as " shallow semantic parsing ") was developed by Daniel Gildea and Daniel Jurafsky based on FrameNet in 2002, and Semantic Role Labelling has since become one of the standard tasks in natural language processing.

It can be considered the first Social Semantic Web application, in that it combines RDF technology with ' Social Web ' concerns.

Dublin Core Metadata can be used for multiple purposes, from simple resource description, to combining metadata vocabularies of different metadata standards, to providing interoperability for metadata vocabularies in the Linked data cloud and Semantic web implementations.

along the lines of semantic networks is MultiNet ( an acronym for Multilayered Extended Semantic Networks ).

* Ontology Inference Layer or Ontology Interchange Language, an Ontology Infrastructure for the Semantic Web

There are also elaborate types of semantic networks connected with corresponding sets of software tools used for lexical knowledge engineering, like the Semantic Network Processing System ( SNePS ) of Stuart C. Shapiro or the MultiNet paradigm of Hermann Helbig, especially suited for the semantic representation of natural language expressions and used in several NLP applications.

" Semantic Web " is sometimes used as a synonym for " Web 3. 0 ", though each term's definition varies.

Some of the challenges for the Semantic Web include vastness, vagueness, uncertainty, inconsistency, and deceit.

Standardization for Semantic Web in the context of Web 3. 0 is under the care of W3C.

DBpedia is an effort to publish structured data extracted from Wikipedia: the data is published in RDF and made available on the Web for use under the GNU Free Documentation License, thus allowing Semantic Web agents to provide inferencing and advanced querying over the Wikipedia-derived dataset and facilitating interlinking, re-use and extension in other data-sources.

Ontologies are the structural frameworks for organizing information and are used in artificial intelligence, the Semantic Web, systems engineering, software engineering, biomedical informatics, library science, enterprise bookmarking, and information architecture as a form of knowledge representation about the world or some part of it.

One of the Investigators working on the program was Tim Berners-Lee and to a great degree through his influence, working with the program managers, the effort worked to create technologies and demonstrations for what is now called the Semantic Web.

This mechanism for describing resources is a major component in the W3C's Semantic Web activity: an evolutionary stage of the World Wide Web in which automated software can store, exchange, and use machine-readable information distributed throughout the Web, in turn enabling users to deal with the information with greater efficiency and certainty.

In June 2006, a request for proposal was issued by OMG for a third variant, SMOF ( Semantic MOF ).

Ontologies are the structural frameworks for organizing information and are used in artificial intelligence, the Semantic Web, systems engineering, software engineering, biomedical informatics, library science, enterprise bookmarking, and information architecture as a form of knowledge representation about the world or some part of it.

: Semantic meaning, derived from the underlying structure of the HTML document, is important for search engines and also for various accessibility tools.

This semantic interpretation is specified via the Semantic Interpretation for Speech Recognition ( SISR ) standard.

OIL ( Ontology Inference Layer or Ontology Interchange Language ) can be regarded as an ontology infrastructure for the Semantic Web.

The Semantic Web is a collaborative movement led by the international standards body, the World Wide Web Consortium ( W3C ).

By encouraging the inclusion of semantic content in web pages, the Semantic Web aims at converting the current web dominated by unstructured and semi-structured documents into a " web of data ".

The term was coined by Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web and director of the World Wide Web Consortium (" W3C "), which oversees the development of proposed Semantic Web standards.

He defines the Semantic Web as " a web of data that can be processed directly and indirectly by machines.

The original 2001 Scientific American article by Berners-Lee described an expected evolution of the existing Web to a Semantic Web, but this has yet to happen.

The concept of the Semantic Network Model was coined in the early sixties by the cognitive scientist Allan M. Collins, linguist M. Ross Quillian and psychologist Elizabeth F. Loftus in various publications, as a form to represent semantically structured knowledge.

The term was coined by Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web and director of the World Wide Web Consortium (" W3C "), which oversees the development of proposed Semantic Web standards.

He defines the Semantic Web as " a web of data that can be processed directly and indirectly by machines.

The main purpose of the Semantic Web is driving the evolution of the current Web by enabling users to find, share, and combine information more easily.

In a paper presented by Gerber, Barnard and Van der Merwe the Semantic Web landscape is charted and a brief summary of related terms and enabling technologies is presented.

In Semantic Web applications, and in relatively popular applications of RDF like RSS and FOAF ( Friend of a Friend ), resources tend to be represented by URIs that intentionally denote, and can be used to access, actual data on the World Wide Web.

Semantic security is not implied by the computational Diffie – Hellman assumption alone.

This approach is often called ' semantics-based compiling ', and was pioneered by Peter Mosses ' Semantic Implementation System ( SIS ) in 1978.

Conversions of JOVIAL to other languages is currently done by Semantic Designs, whose DMS Software Reengineering Toolkit was used to convert some of the JOVIAL mission software for the B-2 to C.

The languages are characterised by formal semantics and RDF / XML-based serializations for the Semantic Web.

Semantic challenges to divine command theory have been proposed ; the philosopher William Wainwright argued that to be commanded by God and to be morally obligatory do not have an identical meaning, which he believed would make defining obligation difficult.

Semantic memory is memory for facts, episodic memory is autobiographical memory, procedural memory is memory for the performance of skills, priming is memory facilitated by prior exposure to a stimulus and working memory is a form or short term memory for information manipulation.

The Syntax / Semantic Language ( S / SL ) is an executable high level specification language for recursive descent parsers, semantic analyzers and code generators developed by James Cordy, Ric Holt and David Wortman at the University of Toronto in 1980.
