Synthesis Lectures on the Semantic Web: Theory and Technology is edited by Ying Ding of Indiana University and Paul Groth of University of Amsterdam. Whether you call it the Semantic Web, Linked Data, or Web 3.0, a new generation of Web technologies is offering major advances in the evolution of the World Wide Web. As the first generation of this technology transitions out of the laboratory, new research is exploring how the growing Web of Data will change our world. While topics such as ontology-building and logics remain vital, new areas such as the use of semantics in Web search, the linking and use of open data on the Web, and future applications that will be supported by these technologies are becoming important research areas in their own right. Whether they be scientists, engineers or practitioners, Web users increasingly need to understand not just the new technologies of the Semantic Web, but to understand the principles by which those technologies work, and the best practices for assembling systems that integrate the different languages, resources, and functionalities that will be important in keeping the Web the rapidly expanding, and constantly changing, information space that has changed our lives.
Topics to be included:
• Semantic Web Principles from linked-data to ontology design
• Key Semantic Web technologies and algorithms
• Semantic Search and language technologies
• The Emerging “Web of Data” and its use in industry, government and university applications
• Trust, Social networking and collaboration technologies for the Semantic Web
• The economics of Semantic Web application adoption and use
• Publishing and Science on the Semantic Web
• Semantic Web in health care and life sciences

SYNTHESIS LECTURES ON THE SEMANTIC WEB: THEORY AND TECHNOLOGY #18
ABSTRACT
Ontologies have become increasingly important as the use of knowledge graphs, machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), and the amount of data generated on a daily basis has exploded. As of 2014, 90% of the data in the digital universe had been generated in the preceding two years, and the volume of data was projected to grow from 3.2 zettabytes to 40
