Semantic Web is ready :
Five years after its launch, the Semantic Web project is operational.
Launched five years ago with the purpose to
make it possible for
computers to interpret the contents of documents (text, video,
audio, etc ) which circulate on the Web, the Semantic Web project is
now operational.
This is in any case what the British scientist Sir Timothy Berners
Lee announced at a keynote in the recent conference World
Wide Web 2006 which was held from 23 to 26 May 2006 in
Edinburgh in Scotland. Sir Berners Lee, now 51 years old, is the
inventor of the Web and the founder of the W3C (World Wide Web
Consortium), consortium going back to October 1994 and charged to
promote the technologies of the Web.

Editorial
|
One of the objectives of the Knowledge Web Industry
e-newsletter is dedicated to promoting greater awareness and faster
take-up of Semantic Web technology within Europe in full synergy with
the research activity in order to reduce time needed to transfer the
technology to industry and so to market. We have established an
industry board as an effective communication channel between industry
and academia, in order to: understand industry needs and difficulties
of migrating Semantic Web technologies to industry; survey and
profile the existing ontologies, tools, infrastructures etc.; make
recommendations, guidelines and standards to help industry organize,
design and implement their migration into Semantic Web technology
enabled IT systems; and promote awareness of the added value of the
Semantic Web technologies in the increasingly competitive knowledge
economy.
Looking forward to your feedback and comments.

ESWC 2006
The 3rd Annual European Semantic Web
Conference will be held in Budva,
Montenegro from the 11th -
14th June, 2006. It will present the latest results in research
and application in Semantic Web technologies (including knowledge
markup languages, Semantic Web services, ontology management and
more).
ESWC 2006 will also feature a special industry-oriented event on Monday 12th June
providing European industry with an opportunity to become even more
familiar with these technologies. It will offer a tutorial program,
focusing on the latest in Semantic Web technologies.
ESWC 2006 is co-located with a meeting of the Knowledge Web network
of excellence. Workshops and meetings of other European Commission
6th Framework Programme projects involved in the Semantic Web and
Semantic Web technologies will be able to showcase their
developments. ESWC 2006 is sponsored by ESSI (formerly SDK), a group
of four European Commission 6th Framework Programme projects known as
SEKT, DIP, Knowledge Web and ASG. Collectively these projects aim to
improve world-wide research and standardisation in the areas of the
Semantic Web and Semantic Web Systems.
Reasoning Web 2006
The Semantic Web
is one of the major current endeavors of applied Computer Science.
The Semantic Web aims at
enriching the existing Web with meta-data and processing methods so
as to provide web-based systems with advanced (so-called intelligent)
capabilities, in particular with context-awareness
and decision support.
The objective of the Summer School Reasoning Web 2006
is to provide a coherent introduction into Semantic Web methods and
issues with a particular focus on their usage in bio-health
applications.

Research
and Industry
One unique aspect of KnowledgeWeb is the close co-operation being
built up between leading Semantic Web researchers and Industry
Board members interested in becoming early adopters and
benefactors of Semantic Web technologies. In the next newsletter
we will be reporting on some existing concrete co-operations and
demonstrating value of Semantic Web in the enterprise.
