Semantic Web
Web Science[1]
== Text web vs multimedia web
| Text Web | Multimedia web |
|---|---|
| Text is presented with minimal markup | Text is heavily styled often with CSS |
| Pages are generally static (dynamic elements are certainly feasible, but they are often minimally styled) | Pages are generally dynamic |
| Page is designed to be read | Page is designed to be seen, heard, and read |
| Design of content and markup is often rather sparse and utilitarian | Design of content and markup is often called "rich media". |
The aims of the semantic web[edit]
From the W3C[2]:
- The Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web that will allow you to find, share, and combine information more easily.
- Designed to be a universal medium for the exchange of data
- Enable vocabulary semantics to be defined and reused by communities of expertise, not necessarily W3C
- Provide for the fine-grained mixing of diverse metadata
- Making it cost-effective for people to effectively record their knowledge.
Do you understand this?[edit]
From the IB: The traditional web is seen as being text based, the semantic web is multimedia based.
Standards[edit]
These standards are used from the IB Computer Science Subject Guide[3]
- Distinguish between the text-web and the multimedia-web
- Describe the aims of the semantic web
