The Semantic Web Vision: Where Are We?

The full vision of the Semantic Web has yet to be fully accomplished, but there has been considerable progress in the development and use of standards, languages, technologies and applications. While mainstream adoption is still five to ten years away, there is an imperative need for a survey that will paint a clear picture for practitioners describing the “semantic” road that is being followed. The aim of this article is to present a snapshot that can capture key trends in the Semantic Web, such as application domains, tools, systems, languages and techniques being used, and a projection on when organizations will put their full-blown systems into production.
