  • Introduction to Linked Data and Its Lifecycle on the Web
    Introduction to Linked Data and its Lifecycle on the Web Sören Auer, Jens Lehmann, Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo, Amrapali Zaveri AKSW, Institut für Informatik, Universität Leipzig, Pf 100920, 04009 Leipzig {lastname}@informatik.uni-leipzig.de http://aksw.org Abstract. With Linked Data, a very pragmatic approach towards achieving the vision of the Semantic Web has gained some traction in the last years. The term Linked Data refers to a set of best practices for publishing and interlinking struc- tured data on the Web. While many standards, methods and technologies devel- oped within by the Semantic Web community are applicable for Linked Data, there are also a number of specific characteristics of Linked Data, which have to be considered. In this article we introduce the main concepts of Linked Data. We present an overview of the Linked Data lifecycle and discuss individual ap- proaches as well as the state-of-the-art with regard to extraction, authoring, link- ing, enrichment as well as quality of Linked Data. We conclude the chapter with a discussion of issues, limitations and further research and development challenges of Linked Data. This article is an updated version of a similar lecture given at Reasoning Web Summer School 2011. 1 Introduction One of the biggest challenges in the area of intelligent information management is the exploitation of the Web as a platform for data and information integration as well as for search and querying. Just as we publish unstructured textual information on the Web as HTML pages and search such information by using keyword-based search engines, we are already able to easily publish structured information, reliably interlink this informa- tion with other data published on the Web and search the resulting data space by using more expressive querying beyond simple keyword searches.
