From the reviews:
The tutorial papers presented provide good coverage of specific methods and issues of the semantic Web, Web rule and query language, ontology languages, the resource description framework (RDF), and other topics, including some implementations, ranging from theoretical and fundamental aspects to various applied topics. This book will help researchers familiarize themselves with some of the technologies proposed. (Hector Zenil, Computing Reviews, January, 2008)
