"The Semantic Web is an extension of the current Web in which information is given well-defined meaning, enabling computers and people to work in better cooperation. The Web will reach its full potential when it becomes an environment where data can be shared and processed by automated tools as well as by people" - Tim Berners-Lee and Eric Miller.

Weaving the New Testament into the Semantic Web — by Rob Zaar — last modified 2007-02-09 00:21

This paper will briefly overview what the Semantic Web is, and why it is relevant to Biblical scholars. It will also describe several Semantic Web projects underway at SemanticBible.org. For example, the NT Names project is producing a freely-sharable semantic catalog of people, locations, and other named objects in the New Testament, as well as various kinship, interpersonal, and locational relationships between them. Other projects address the creation of semantically-organized lexical resources, and semantic relationships within and between the Gospels. The paper will close with additional suggestions for how Semantic Web technologies can enable better integration, access, and search for Biblical data.

Gnowsys - Zope Semantic Web Project — by Rob Zaar — last modified 2007-03-24 18:27

GNOWSYS is an acronym for Gnowledge Networking and Organizing SYStem. The 'G' in GNOWSYS is pronounced hard just as the 'G' in GNU. It is a web-application with unique features that make it only one of its kind. It is developed as a product of a widely used free (as in freedom) web-application server, ZOPE (Zee Object Publishing Environment), and is implemented in a versatile, full-featured object-oriented programming language Python. Its development is supported by Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education, TIFR.
