Introduction
Multimedia Web Ontology Language (MOWL) has been designed to facilitate semantic interactions with multimedia contents. It supports perceptual modeling of concepts using expected media properties. While the reasoning in traditional ontology languages, e.g. Web Ontology Language (OWL), is based on Description Logics, MOWL supports a probabilistic reasoning framework based on Bayesian Network.
[edit] History
W3C forum has undertaken the initiative of standardizing the ontology representation for web-based applications. The Web
The Web Ontology Language (OWL) is a language for defining and instantiating Web ontologies.[1] An OWL ontology may include descriptions of classes, along with their related properties and instances. OWL is designed for use by applications that need to process the content of information instead of just presenting information to humans. It facilitates greater machine interpretability of Web content than that supported by XML, RDF, and RDF Schema (RDF-S) by providing additional vocabulary along with a formal semantics. OWL is based on earlier languages

Abstract
This article introduces Resource Description Framework (RDF), a technology developed by the W3C for web-based metadata. RDF’s goal is to make work easier for autonomous agents and automated services using XML as an interchange syntax. This article includes a simple ASP.NET example that generates one of the most popular RDF applications, Friend of a Friend (FOAF) RDF files, which connects people over the Web though their relationships.
