  4. Semantic Web Challenge http://challenge.semanticweb.org/ Goal: to apply Semantic Web techniques in building online end-user applications that integrate, combine and deduce information needed to assist users in performing task • Certain minimum criteria: • Meaning of data has to play a central role • Heterogeneous information sources, under diverse control • Open world assumption (information is never complete) • (multi-media, commercial potential, scalability, dynamic data) • Semantic Web Challenge • 23 submitted Semantic Web applications • 19 accepted
