Richer, meaningful representations offer more insight and powerful reasoning capabilities. Web Semantics strengthen the description of web resources for exploiting them better and making them more meaningful for both human and machine. Being highly interdisciplinary, Semantic Web is coming as a mature field of research facilitating integration of information from disparate sources. The Semantic Web is a web of meaningful, linked, and integrated data which converts data to meaningful information by making use of metadata. Current web is composed primarily of unstructured data, such as HTML pages and search in current web is based on keyword search. These searches are not able to make out the type of information on the HTML page, i.e., it is not possible to extract different pieces of data from different web pages about a concept and then give integrated information about the concept. The Semantic Web provides such a facility with lesser human involvement.
This book on Web Semantics is being compiled to describe the three major compartments of the study of semantic web, namely Ontology Engineering, Semantic Annotations and the Reasoning. It will cover the issues related to the successful deployment of semantic web. Further an effort has been made to cover the innovative application areas semantic web goes hand in hand with focus on HealthCare by providing a separate section in every chapter for case study of healthcare. The book will help the instructors and students taking courses of Semantic Web getting abreast of cutting edge and future directions of semantic web, hence providing a synergy between healthcare processes and semantic web technologies.
