This article analyses the SW applications from a 'market' perspective, setting the key requirements for real-world information systems that are SW-enabled and discussing the major difficulties for the SW uptake that has been delayed.
Abstract
In recent years, Semantic Web (SW) research has resulted in significant outcomes. Various industries have adopted SW technologies, while \nthe ‘deep web’ is still pursuing the critical transformation point, in which the majority of data found on the deep web will be exploited through SW value layers. In this article we analyse the SW applications from a ‘market’ \nperspective. We are setting the key requirements for real-world information systems that are SW-enabled and we discuss the major difficulties for the SW uptake that has been delayed. This article contributes to the literature of SW \nand knowledge management providing a context for discourse towards best practices on SW-based information systems.
