The Semantic Web represents a vision for how to make the huge amount of information on the Web automatically processable by machines on a large scale. For this purpose, a whole suite of standards, technologies and related tools have been specified and developed over the last couple of years, and they have now become the foundation for numerous new applications. A Developer’s Guide to the Semantic Web helps the reader to learn the core standards, key components, and underlying concepts. It provides in-depth coverage of both the what-is and how-to aspects of the Semantic Web. From Yu’s presentation, the reader will obtain not only a solid understanding about the Semantic Web, but also learn howto combine all the pieces to build new applications on the Semantic Web. Software developers in industry and students specializing in Web development or Semantic Web technologies will find in this book the most complete guide to thisexciting field available today. Based on the step-by-step presentation of real-world projects, where the technologies and standards are applied, they will acquire the knowledge needed to design and implement state-of-the-art applications. offers complete coverage of all core standards and technical components ofthe Semantic Web, including RDF, RDFS, OWL 1 and 2, SPARQL (including features offered by SPARQL 1.1); and related technologies such as Turtle, Microformats, RDFa, GRDDL and SKOS. provides an in-depth description of many well-known applications and projects such as FOAF, semantic Wiki, SearchMonkey by Yahoo!, Rich Snippets by Google, Open Linked Data Project and DBpedia Project. explains the key concepts, core standards and technical components in real-world examples, guiding the readers step-by-step through the development process to bridge the gap between what-is and how-to. includes source code for the examples and application projects, ready for download from the author’s website, www.liyangyu.com.
