The course addresses the aspects needed to realize the vision of the Semantic Web through the use of Intelligent Agents. The traditional World Wide Web is an example of an application of computing on a global scale, thereby creating a Distributed Information Space. In order to be able to categorize, access and process the knowledge contained on the Web, the intelligent agents are required to sift and winnow data and information into knowledge. The course will survey enabling technologies for the semantic web and for linked data, including languages, tools and infrastructures for knowledge representation and rational agents. The role of intelligent agents will be studied in the Semantic Web framework.
