Abstract | |||||||||||||||
| In 1998 the World-Wide Web Consortium (W3C) inaugurated a research initiative centred on the idea of providing semantics for and facilitating the extraction of knowledge from the WWW. The Semantic Web is a vision of Tim Berners-Lee, the creator of the WWW. With the help of XML, RDF, OIL and other emergent standards it will be possible to give more structure and meaning to existing web data. This will lead to a universal network where all available information can effectively be found: the semantic web. Clearly, the realisation of the semantic web will have a huge influence on the way digital libraries will be conceived. 1 2 | |||||||||||||||
