Abstract
The semantic discontinuity between World-Wide Web languages, e.g., XML, XML Schema, and XPath, and Semantic Web languages, e.g., RDF, RDFS, and DAML+OIL, forms a serious barrier for the stated goals of the Semantic Web. This discontinuity results from a difference in modeling foundations between XML and logics. We proposeto eliminate that discontinuity by creating a common semantic foundation for both the World-Wide Web and the Semantic Web, taking ideas from both. The common foundation resultsin essentially no change to XML, and only minor changes to RDF. But it allows the Semantic Web to get closer to its goal of describing the semantics of the World Wide Web. Other Semantic Web languages (including RDFS and DAML+OIL) are considerably changed because of this common foundation. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2002.
