Innovative semantic web services for next generation academic electronic library via Web 3.0 via distributed artificial intelligence

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to incubate the establishment of semantic web services for next generation academic electronic library via Web 3.0. The e-library users will be extremely beneficial from the forthcoming semantic social web mechanism. Web 3.0 will be the third generation of WWW and integrate semantics web, intelligent agent, and Distributed Artificial Intelligence into the ubiquitous networks. On top of current library 2.0 structures, we would be able to fulfill the Web 3.0 electronic library. We design the deployment of intelligent agents to form the semantic social web in order to interpret linguistic expressions of e-library users without ambiguity. This research is conducting the pioneering research to introduce the future and direction for the associate academic electronic library to follow the proposed guidelines to initiate the construction of future library system in terms of service-oriented architecture. This research article is the pioneering practice of future academic digital libraries under Web 3.0 structures. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
