A Semantic Web Primer provides an introduction and guide to this emerging field, describing its key ideas, languages, and technologies. Suitable for use as a textbook or for self-study by professionals, it concentrates on undergraduate-level fundamental concepts and techniques that will enable readers to proceed with building applications on their own. It includes exercises, project descriptions, and annotated references to relevant online materials. A Semantic Web Primer is the only available book on the Semantic Web to include a systematic treatment of the different languages (XML, RDF, OWL, and rules) and technologies (explicit metadata, ontologies, and logic and inference) that are central to Semantic Web development. The book also examines such crucial related topics as ontology engineering and application scenarios. After an introductory chapter, topics covered in succeeding chapters include XML and related technologies that support semantic interoperability; RDF and RDF Schema, the standard data model for machine-processable semantics; and OWL, the W3C-approved standard for a Web ontology language more extensive than RDF Schema; rules, both monotonic and nonmonotonic, in the framework of the Semantic Web; selected application domains and how the Semantic Web would benefit them; the development of ontology-based systems; and current debates on key issues and predictions for the future. ![]() A Self Help Guide For Lazy People (Fluff-Free, Self-Help Series) by Luke Jean-Louis English | December 20, 2025 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0G98MFK8N | 148 pages | EPUB | 2.02 Mb Improving your life shouldn't be this easy! ![]() A School Lunch Revolution: A Cookbook by Alice Waters English | October 14, 2025 | ISBN: 0525561560 | 160 pages | MOBI | 57 Mb In this multigenerational cookbook for adults and children alike, Alice Waters, the award-winning chef and food activist, champions an empowered relationship between students and organic food, offering delicious recipes that will nourish future generations-and ourselves-from the inside out ![]() A Rockhound's Guide to Oregon & Washington by Alison Jean Cole English | May 1, 2025 | ISBN: 168051699X | 312 pages | MOBI | 59 Mb Features 60 outstanding rockhounding sitesEmphasizes rockhounding basics, sustainable collecting, and Leave No Trace principlesEach location features an overview of the area's geologic history along with what types of rocks and fossils you may findThe Pacific Northwest's complex geologic history makes it a treasure trove for rockhounds.
