Six challenges for the Semantic Web

Resumen

The Semantic Web has attracted a diverse, but significant, community of researchers, institutes and companies, all sharing the belief that one day it will have as big an impact on life as currently the WWW/Internet has We share that vision, based on the ever-increaseing need to reduce information overload, and to increase task delegation to software agents However, there is still a long way to go before the Semantic Web dream comes true. We identify some of the major challenges the community faces in the coming years, and we outline solution directions. The major challenges concern: (i) the avalilability of content, (ii) ontology availability, development and evolution, (iii) scalability, (iv) multilinguality, (v)visualization to reduce information overload, an (vi) stability of Semantic Web languages
