Integrating user and group preferences for top-k search from distributed web resources

We discuss models of user and group preferences in social networks and the Semantic web. We construct a model for user and group preference querying over RDF data as well as for ordering of answers by aggregation of particular attribute ranking. We have implemented our methods and heuristics into the Tokaf middleware framework prototype. We describe also experiments with Tokaf.
