<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">Semantic Web is a major international research effort with the goal to make web content available for intelligent knowledge processing. The Semantic Web draws on standard and novel techniques from various disciplines
related to Computer Science, including Artificial Intelligence, Databases, Internet Technology, Software Agents, Ontologies, Knowledge Management and eCommerce. The developed and integrated methods and tools – often called Semantic Technologies – are generic
and have a very large application potential outside the domain of Semantic Web.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span lang="EN-US">Applications of Semantic Technologies are currently being investigated in various fields, including Ambient Intelligence, Software Engineering, Cognitive Systems, Corporate Intranets, Knowledge Management and Bioinformatics.
In recent years the amount of data published on the Semantic Web as so-called Linked Data has exploded. We believe that the methods and tools provided by Semantic Technologies will play a crucial role in these and other application areas for the foreseeable
future, in particular for community-based information platforms.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
