XML is NOT semantics
Xml schema is DOCUMENT checking photo has multiple subject fields photo has one physical location etc.

And many more• DAML ontologies for:
• Army Thesaurus: 18,000 concepts • CIA World Fact Book in DAML: 1400 classes, 2500
instances• UJTLs: 326 classes, all Joint and Naval Task lists as
instances• Military Geofile: ~50 installation types; 56,700 Geoloc
instances• NIMA Geonames: 36,750 Afghanistan targets • And Many more (220 in library)
• WordNet, NCI Cancer Thesaurus, Heads of State, Weather Conditions, CYC, UNSPC, Genealogy, baseball, Chemistry, …

Jim Hendler, 5/13/03
The Growing Semantic Web• Jan 1, 03: Crawler finds 5.8M+ DAML statements on 20,000+ web pages
• Doesn’t include many instance KBs tied to ontologies• Doesn’t include many very large RDFS-based KBs that include some OWL
• Ontology library at http://www.daml.org has 209 ontologies (March 2003)• Open for anyone to create • Open for anyone to use
• OWL is being supported by large corporation labs• Web tool developers: IBM, HP, Sun, Intel, Fujitsu• Content providers: Daimler-Chrysler, Nokia, Motorola, EDS, Agfa
• OWL is starting to be used by thesaurus developers• C.f. National Cancer Institute metathesaurus released in OWL Lite• CALL Thesaurus in DAML • NASA thesaurus available in DAML
• Use of semantic markup for Web Services beginning to move beyond basic research• DAML-S cited as required reading for Web Services Choreography WG• DAML-S being demoed to WSDL WG tomorrow!!

“Then, a miracle occurs”
III. What can you do with it? (not necessaril y in sequence)Self -describing documents (JAH)

Tools are criticalTools for marking up images, figures and other non-textual data… must be built in a way that they tie into the "business processes" of the working scientist -- that is, rather than learning a whole new set of tools, the basic web tools of the scientist must include mechanisms that make it EASIER for the scientist to produce web content (appropriately markedup) while authoring papers, performing experiments, creating and logging data, and the other day to day activities of the working researcher.

Tools for visualization and use
A number of tools for querying, browsing and visualizing SW data are being developed

Jim Hendler, 5/13/03
Handle larger size/complexity
Tools are now scaling as well
