Ontologies and the Semantic Web

Michael N. Huhns University of South Carolina The Zen of the Web In contrast to the original Web’s content, which was designed for human use and comprehension, the Semantic Web’s1 content is for computer use and understanding. To date, however, most such efforts have focused on the understanding rather than use. This special issue of IC focuses on the use of the Web by computer systems and agents. By supporting the notion of “getting work done,” the Semantic Web will become more useful, valuable, and pragmatic. Many organizations are attempting to make the Web computer-friendly via Web services, but current incarnations of these technologies are subject to several limitations:
