Lecturer:

Tutor:

Supervisor:
Department of Software Engineering
Synopsis:

We give an introduction to basic models of semantic web. We can understand semantic web as a project of automation of web content processing, or, as enrichment of web content which enables automated processing (by agents, robots, services, ...) but also as a step from keyword based search to a model of the web which will be more integrated database enabling an untrained user to find the object of his/her interest.

Requirements:
Syllabus of lectures:

1.Basic problems and the vision of automatic processing of web content, in the context of Internet and web, protocols and standards development

2.Introduction to web description languages, RDF model and connections to XML and the relational model

3.Introduction to languages for description of metadata and knowledge on the web, RDFS

4.Formal semantics of RDF and RDFS

5.Basics of description logic (DL)

6.Computational complexity of reasoning in DL

7.DL with concrete domains and weak EL description logic (effectiveness versus expressivity)

8.Knowledge and Ontologies in OWL

9.From OWL to OWL2, connection of Ontologies and DL, mapping and acquisition of ontologies, small ontologies (microformats, topic-maps, ?)

10.Web querying languages, SPARQL

11. Models od evaluation of SPARQL queries

12.Connection between different data models, querying languages and data representation

13.Modeling uncertainty, reliability, reputation and preferences on the web

Syllabus of tutorials:

Excercises have the form of individual consultations.

Study Objective:

Students will be familiarized with principles of semantic web, basic models and approaches.
