ABSTRACT
To achieve the vision of the semantic web, web pages need to be transformed into a machine-processable form to enable computers understand them. This vision can be reached by using a common technique of web page annotation. Web page annotation is considered one of the effective techniques for relating text to knowledge representation artifacts. In this paper we present an Arabic semantic annotation tool called AraTation for semantically annotating Arabic News content on the web. This tool is constructed using the Java programming language and OWL ontologies to produce RDF metadata for web pages. The RDF standard will make the annotated Arabic web pages reusable and machine processable on the web. By using the AraTation tool, we can contribute to the vision of the semantic web and open the field for Arabic semantic web research.

The semantic annotated documents: from HTML to the semantic web
CEA'07: Proceedings of the 2007 annual Conference on International Conference on Computer Engineering and ApplicationsThe current circumstance of the Semantic Web is that there is not much of a Semantic Web due to the lack of annotated web pages. There is such a lack because annotating web pages currently does not provide much practical benefit. In this work an ...
