Core Semantics for Public Ontologies

Abstract

The World Wide Web contains a large amount of information which is currently being represented using the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and the Extensible Markup Language (XML). However, HTML and XML have a limited capability to describe the relationships (schemas or ontologies) with respect to objects. The DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) through the use of ontologies provides a very powerful way to describe objects and their relationships to other objects. DAML is an extension to XML and the Resource Description Framework (RDF). This effort focused on development of semantic transfer protocols for exchange of information and communication between semantically competent agents. It also developed an extended theory semantically expressive description languages used by and shared between agents.
