Home > Reference > Knowledge Management > Knowledge Representation > Semantic Web

This category contains sites dedicated to Semantic Web activity, community, research, events and tools. The Semantic Web is a vision: the idea of having data on the web defined and linked in a way that it can be used by machines - not just for display purposes, but for using it in various applications.
