The Role of Frame-Based Representation on the Semantic Web

Overview The Semantic Web can be viewed as the next generation of the World Wide Web architecture, an essential part of which is the content producers' ability to the share the ontological information that defines the formal semantics of the Web content. Through shared ontological commitments, reasoning agents are able to reach partial shared understanding and thus interoperate. This paper proposes frame-based representation as a suitable paradigm for building ontologies, and the World Wide Web Consortium's RDF-formalism (and its extensions, such as the DARPA Agent Markup Language) as a manifestation of frame-based representation for the Web.
