Collaborative Semantic Web Browsing with Magpie
نویسندگان
چکیده
Web browsing is often a collaborative activity. Users involved in a joint information gathering exercise will wish to share knowledge about the web pages visited and the contents found. Magpie is a suite of tools supporting the interpretation of web pages and semantically enriched web browsing. By automatically associating an ontology-based semantic layer to web resources, Magpie allows relevant services to be invoked as well as remotely triggered within a standard web browser. In this paper we describe how Magpie trigger services can provide semantic support to collaborative browsing activities.

Magpie: Experiences in supporting Semantic Web browsing
Magpie has been one of the first truly effective approaches to bringing semantics into the web browsing experience. The key innovation brought y Magpie was the replacement of a manual annotation process by an automatically associated ontology-based semantic layer over web resources, hich ensured added value at no cost for the user. Magpie also differs from older open hypermedia systems: its ass...
متن کاملMagpie: customizing users’ experiences when browsing on the semantic web
We describe several advanced functionalities of Magpie – a tool that assists users in the interpretation of web resources. Magpie is an extension to Internet Explorer that automatically creates a semantic layer for browsed web pages from a user-selected ontology. Semantic layers are annotations of web pages, with a set of applicable semantic services attached to the annotated items. We argue th...
متن کاملOpening Up Magpie via Semantic Services
Magpie is a suite of tools supporting a ‘zero-cost’ approach to semantic web browsing: it avoids the need for manual annotation by automatically associating an ontology-based semantic layer to web resources. An important aspect of Magpie, which differentiates it from superficially similar hypermedia systems, is that the association between items on a web page and semantic concepts is not merely...
متن کاملSemantic Layering with Magpie
Browsing the web involves two main tasks: finding the right web page and then making sense of its content. A significant amount of research has gone into supporting the task of finding web resources through ‘standard’ information retrieval mechanisms, or semantics-enhanced search. Much less attention has been paid to the second problem. In this paper we describe Magpie, a tool which supports th...
