The course looks at semantic technologies which is used to describe languages, software, methodologies and models that are aimed at representing and manipulating metadata which encodes explicit meaning; by doing so, the possibility of using machine processing in order to help us search, organize and understand our data is opened up; semantic technologies are being most visibly applied in efforts to build a semantic web - an application of such technologies in a web setting and at web scale; this pathway combines intelligent reasoning technologies from the logic and automated reasoning theme, with web and ontology related topics from the advanced web technologies theme; students therefore gain insight into both topics, and how they can be used and combined fruitfully in ontology-based applications and the semantic web.
