Semantic Web Issues

« Previous Next Chapter »

Semantic Web Agents

The semantic web will not be searchable in free text. To search (or access) the semantic web, we will need some software to help us.

To use the semantic web, we will need "Semantic Web Agents" or "Semantic Web Services". These "Agents" or "Services" will help us to find what we are looking for on the semantic web.

On the semantic web, we might want to look for information about:

  • The cheapest airline tickets
  • Styling that would fit my car
  • Books, DVDs, and CDs
  • Weather forecasts
  • Time schedules and calendar events
  • Stock prices and exchange rates

Semantic Web Security

Can I trust a seller on the semantic web. Can I trust a buyer on the semantic web?

To solve, I will need access to more RDF files:

  • Credit card information
  • Bank information
  • Semantic records
  • Social Security information
Source Person ID Person Name Status
Citybank 11223344 John Smith trustworthy
VISA 11223344 John Smith trustworthy
Recorded 11223344 John Smith unknown
US Social Security 11223344 John Smith born 10-10-1962

By using RDF files like this, my "Semantic Web Agent" can determine if I can trust the person I am dealing with.

(the "Recorded" information could be supplied by Internet trading companies like eBay, Amazon or the like)


Payment

To serve the semantic web, payment methods have to be developed.

Internet accessible "Deposit Accounts" could be a solution to this.

A deposit account is an account that can only receive deposits. It could be made accessible for everyone on the Internet, and everyone could deposit money to your account only knowing your ID (or your email address, much like PayPal).

Using this payment method everyone could publish their bank account number over the Internet and sell their car without any middleman.


OWL - Your Web Thesaurus

Scenario:

  • You want to sell a book
  • You open your OWL agent
  • You entered “Book” in the category
  • A new screen is asking you to fill out information about the book
  • You fill out the ISBN number written on the book
  • You select "used", and "condition as new", and hit return
  • Your OWL agent automatically fills out the rest
  • Author, year, pages, ...... all information is now complete
  • Your OWL agent has collected all the information you needed to sell the book
  • You click on Auction

You can read more about OWL in our RDF tutorial.


Your Auction Agent

  • Your Auction agent opens.
  • You fill out minimum price, and click on "Submit"
  • You book becomes available to all the auctions on the Internet
