The unit course will provide students with a theoretical and practical understanding of leading edge solutions for the Semantic Web. In this course, we will present an in-depth treatment of the ontology representation languages as well as associated query languages which are recommended standards by the World Wide Web consortium (W3C). The course comprises two parts:
The first part of the course will introduce students to graph data and formalisms (RDF), Schema Languages for graph data (RDFS), and query languages for graph data (SPARQL).
The second part of the course will introduce students to the W3C standard Web Ontology Language (OWL) and its underlyingDescription Logics. It will provide students with experience using a set of established patterns for developing OWL ontologies and help them to learn to avoid the major pitfalls in using OWL.
The following subjects will be discussed:
