Abstract:
The emergence of Semantic Web (SW) and related
technologies promise to make the web a meaningful
experience. Web services (WS) enable distributed
access and discovery of internal, Enterprise functions
and services over the web, in a secure controlled
environment. Yet, high level modeling, design and
querying techniques proves to be a challenging task
for organizations that are hoping to utilize the SW
paradigm for their industrial and WS applications.
Conversely both, SW and WS paradigm can benefit, if
some of the traditional database concepts,
functionalities and models are made adoptable to the
new SW/WS paradigm. To address one such issue, in
this paper, we propose a view model for Semantic Web
that can be utilized in the new web information system
framework, the SW/WS. First we outline our view
model and then briefly provide discussion on its
properties and some modeling issues with the help of
an industrial case study example.
