Query-based database policy assurance using semantic web technologies
… themselves. In doing so, we use a number of Semantic Web technologies to define rules, translate queries, and make assertions about compliance with existing policies. We can ascertain compliance without looking at the contents of the database. Our system can function as a drop-in addition to …

Embedding a Multimedia Metadata Model into a Workflow-driven Environment Using Idiomatic Semantic Web Technologies
The Semantic Web exists for about 20 years by now, but its applicability as well as its presence does not live up to the standards of its original idea. Incorporated Semantic Web Technologies do have an initial barrier to learn and apply, which can discourage many potential users. This leads to …

Applying semantic web technologies in education : a digital mathematics problem archive for the mathematics student at the upper secondary level Malta
The World Wide Web can be described as a database of information about every topic of the real world. Due to semantic heterogeneity coupled with up to a certain extent - lack of machine understandability of web contents, we use search engines running keyword-based algorithms to retrieve the desired …
