Overview:

The Resource Description Framework (RDF) and Web Ontology Language (OWL) are important technologies driving development on the road to the semantic web. The former is a set of World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) specifications that provide a model for representing metadata through specific statements, or triples, made up of subject-predicate-object representations for specific resources. Data from disparate stores can then be mashed together or built into resources of machine-readable information, which can be processed, exchanged, and stored by web-based applications. The latter technology, OWL, is currently a W3C recommendation for a language that can be applied to define and represent data models more effectively than other metadata languages, such as XML, through the use of semantics and a vocabulary that provide class and property descriptions.
