语义网是万维网联盟（W3C）通过标准对万维网的扩展。这些标准促进了Web上的通用数据格式和交换协议，最基本的是资源描述框架（RDF）。根据W3C，“语义Web提供了一个通用框架，允许跨应用程序、企业和社区边界共享和重用数据”。因此，语义Web被视为跨不同内容、信息应用程序和系统的集成器。这个术语是由TimBerners-Lee为一个数据网（或数据网）而创造的，这个数据网可以被机器处理，也就是说，其中的许多含义是机器可读的。尽管批评者质疑其可行性，但支持者认为，在图书馆和信息科学、工业、生物学和人文科学研究中的应用已经证明了原始概念的有效性。

The Semantic Web is an extension of the World Wide Web through standards by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The standards promote common data formats and exchange protocols on the Web, most fundamentally the Resource Description Framework (RDF). According to the W3C, "The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries". The Semantic Web is therefore regarded as an integrator across different content, information applications and systems.The term was coined by Tim Berners-Lee for a web of data (or data web)that can be processed by machines—that is, one in which much of the meaning is machine-readable. While its critics have questioned its feasibility, proponents argue that applications in library and information science, industry, biology and human sciences research have already proven the validity of the original concept.
