    613=== Organizers === 
     
    1017Semantic technologies emerge from efforts to create a Semantic Web, to transform the current “Web of documents” to a “Web of data”, available to people and to computers alike. It opens up a whole new class of intelligent services and applications, not restricted to the domain of the web proper. Both industry and public services may greatly benefit from the enhancement of human-computer communication, improved information retrieval, data exchange and system interoperability offered by semantic technologies.

    12 The semantic technologies comprise a set of standardized formats and languages used to express data on the Web, allowing consumers and businesses to easier find and analyze all kinds of useful online information. The basic technologies are:[[BR]]·  Common languages for representing data that can be “understood” by software systems[[BR]]·  Ontologies – concepts, relations and definitions – that provide common terminologies to interpret data from disparate sources[[BR]]·  Rules that allow software to retrieve and reason about information on the basis of the ontologies
