Web Semantics: Transforming the Data Web

Web Semantics is a pivotal concept that enhances the description of web resources, making them more meaningful for both humans and machines. It contributes to the development of a knowledge-intensive data web, where data is transformed into knowledge and the web evolves from a document model to a data model.

The underlying idea is to make data machine understandable and processable. In the light of these trends, the conciliation of Semantic and the Web is of paramount importance for further progress in the area.

Web Semantics: Cutting Edge and Future Directions in Healthcare

Web Semantics: Cutting Edge and Future Directions in Healthcare, authored by Sarika Jain, describes the three major components of the study of Semantic Web, namely Representation, Reasoning, and Security, with a special focus on the healthcare domain. This book summarizes the trends and current research advances in web semantics, emphasizing the existing tools and techniques, methodologies, and research solutions.

It provides easily comprehensible information on Web Semantics including semantics for data and semantics for services. The book presents a comprehensive examination of the emerging research in areas of the semantic web, including ontological engineering, semantic annotation, reasoning and intelligent processing, semantic search paradigms, semantic web mining, and semantic sentiment analysis.
