The Semantic + Pragmatic Web = The Semiotic Web

چکیده
The desideratum for the concept of a semiotic web is proposed. It combines both the recent semantic web and the pragmatic web initiatives but surpasses them in being faithful to Charles S. Peirce’s pragmatic approach to inquiry. I will address some conceptual shortcomings of the semantic and pragmatic web proposals, and suggest that in a semiotic web, one can to operationalise its basic ideas in an effective way. Accordingly, a foundational approach to multi-agent systems is proposed that goes beyond both semantic and pragmatic notions by employing a logic of questioning and answering, and by taking agents as roles in a dialogical semiotic inquiry of all signs mediated in the universe of the web. The outcome is that in the web realm, semantic and pragmatic elements cannot and should not be separated from each other, and that their merger has significant emergent properties matching Peirce’s sign theory.

In general, Policy-based approaches play an important role in the management of web services, for instance, in the choice of semantic web service and quality of services (QoS) in particular. The present research work illustrates a procedure for the web service selection among functionality similar web services based on WS-Policy semantic matching. In this study, the procedure of WS-Policy publi...
متن کاملA Short Note on Social-Semiotic Networks from the Point of View of Quantitative Semantics
In this extended abstract we discuss four related characteristics of semantic spaces as the standard model of meaning representation in quantitative semantics. We argue that these characteristics are challenged from the point of view of social web communities and the possibilities which they offer in terms of exploring semantic and pragmatic data. More specifically, we plead for a reconstructio...

متن کاملCan the Pragmatic Web Assist Search Engine Optimisation?
Discovering information on the Web relies on the publishers of that information to describe it in a meaningful way, often at the syntactical level. Despite ongoing efforts to improve Web page description, search retrieval is more time consuming than it should be. Essentially this arises because search engines lack the capacity to identify the purpose of the search. The goal of this paper is to ...
