This book provides a systematic treatment of the different languages (XML, RDF, OWL, and rules) and technologies (explicit metadata, ontologies, and logic and inference) that are central to Semantic Web development as well as such crucial related topics as ontology engineering and application scenarios.

This substantially revised and updated second edition reflects recent developments in the field, covering new application areas and tools. The new material includes a discussion of such topics as SPARQL as the RDF query language; OWL DLP and its interesting practical and theoretical properties; the SWRL language (in the chapter on rules); OWL-S (on which the discussion of Web services is now based). The new final chapter considers the state of the art of the field today, captures ongoing discussions, and outlines the most challenging issues facing the Semantic Web in the future.

• Foundations of Fuzzy Logic and Semantic Web Languages

  This book provides a rigorous and succinct account of the mathematical methods and tools used for representing and reasoning with fuzzy information within Semantic Web languages. The book focuses on the three main streams of Semantic Web languages.

• Mathematical Aspects of Logic Programming Semantics

  This book discusses applications of Logic Programming to computational logic and potential applications to the integration of models of computation, knowledge representation and reasoning, and the Semantic Web.

• Practical Semantic Web and Linked Data Applications

  This book is intended to be a practical guide for using RDF data in information processing, linked data, and semantic web applications using both the AllegroGraph product and the Sesame open source project.

• An Introduction to Ontology Engineering (Maria Keet)

  This has as main aim to provide the reader with a comprehensive introductory overview of Ontology Engineering. A secondary aim is to provide hands-on experience in ontology development that illustrate the theory.

• Linked Data: Evolving the Web into a Global Data Space

  This book provides readers with a detailed technical introduction to Linked Data. It begins by outlining the basic principles of Linked Data, including coverage of relevant aspects of Web architecture.

• Semantic Web (Gang Wu)

  Written by a team of highly experienced Web developers, this book explains examines how this powerful new technology can unify and fully leverage the ever-growing data, information, and services that are available on the Internet.

• Ontologies on the Semantic Web (Catherine Legg)

  This book is for who are interested in exploring the technology of Semantic web. It simplifies the tough concepts associated with Semantic web and hence it can be considered as the base to build the knowledge about Web 3.0.

• Data, Syntax and Semantics (J. V. Tucker, et al.)

  This book is an introduction to the mathematical theory of programming languages. It is in tended to provide a first course, one that is suitable for all university students of Computer Science to take early in their education.
