“…RDF offers the possibility of building languages with richer semantics on top of it, such as RDF Applications and OWL. Palmisano et al (2006) state that this means that "there is no need for a separate storage layer for OWL data, moreover, since RDF is an abstract specification that can have different representations (see RDF/XML, Notation3, N-Triples, Turtle), it is possible to exchange RDF data between applications without enforcing an a priori representation". The RDF representation favors application interoperability and allows "the reuse of existing RDFS vocabularies like the User Agent Profile (UAProf) and the CC/PP vocabulary for modeling device capabilities and user preferences" (Vdovjak et al 2003).…”

In this paper we provide a classification of adaptive systems with respect to the kind of semantic technology they exploit to accomplish or improve specific adaptation and user modeling tasks. This classification is based on a distinction between strong semantic techniques and weak semantic techniques. The former are techniques based on the Semantic Web, while the latter regard technologies that, in different ways, annotate resources, enriching their meaning. This second category includes, in particular, Web 2.0 social annotations and mixed approaches between social annotations and Semantic Web techniques. While the impact of the Semantic Web on adaptive systems has been discussed in several survey papers, the potential of weak semantic technologies has, so far, received little attention. The aim of this analysis is to fill this gap. Therefore, we will discuss contributions and limits of both approaches, but we will focus special attention on weak semantic adaptive systems.

The continuing proliferation of mobile devices, content and applications presents barriers to the mainstreaming of As sistive Technologies (ATs), despite their potential utility for users in demanding situations or with minor-to-moderate impairments. We have previously proposed that user profil ing based on human rather than machine-oriented capabil ities, coupled with a shift from conspicuous ATs to consid ering a broader range of adaptations presents opportunities for platform and AT vendors to support many more users. However there has not been a standard, consistent and, most importantly, straightforward way to deliver these benefits. We propose that this delivery gap can be bridged by using the semantic web and related technologies, so the potential benefits of the capability-based approach may be realised.
