Semantic Web: Make web content machine-readable!
“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 automation, integration and reuse of data across various
applications.[W3C 2001] ”
“The Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web in which information is
given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in
cooperation.” [Tim Berners-Lee et al 2001]

What is Semantic Technology?
“Semantic technology (software) allows the meaning
of and associations between information to be known
and processed at execution time.
For a semantic technology to be truly at work within a
system, there must be a knowledge model of some
part of the world (an active ontology) that is used by
one or more applications at execution time.”(((

CapabilityCase: Semantic Data Integrator
SolutionStory: FAA Passenger Threat Analysis
Systems developed in different work practice settings have different
semantic structures for their data. Time-critical access to data is made
difficult by these different semantics. Semantic Data Integration allows
data to be shared and understood across these settings.
Aviation Security – Passenger Threat Analysis
Data for passenger threat analysis comes from
a wide range of heterogeneous, structured and
unstructured sources, including the FBI most
wanted list, flight details, news, public records,
and biometrics.
A solution built using Semagix Freedom allows
security personnel to assess passenger threats
while maintaining a high rate of passenger flow.
Semagix Freedom interfaces with diverse
information sources, extracts relevant
information in near real-time, and then organizes
and normalizes them based upon the ontology. It
co-relates the information from different sources
to determine possible threats. by discovering
hidden relationships between seemingly
unrelated pieces
of information.
