Building Trustworthy Semantic Webs

The semantic web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across applications, enterprises, and community boundaries. The major concern today is securing these semantic webs to ensure that they are dependable. <b>Building Trustworthy Semantic Webs</b> addresses this important topic. Including numerous exercises to make it suitable as both a textbook and as a reference guide, this book presents detailed discussions on securing XML, RDF, and information integration. It also provides coverage of privacy for the semantic web, secure web services, as well as dependability issues such as real-time processing, faulty tolerance, and integrity for the semantic web.
