Metadata research has emerged as a discipline cross-cutting many
domains, focused on the provision of distributed descriptions
(often called annotations) to Web resources or applications. Such
associated descriptions are supposed to serve as a foundation for
advanced services in many application areas, including search and
location, personalization, federation of repositories and automated
delivery of information. Indeed, the Semantic Web is in itself a
concrete technological framework for ontology-based metadata. For
example, Web-based social networking requires metadata describing
people and their interrelations, and large databases with
biological information use complex and detailed metadata schemas
for more precise and informed search strategies.There is a wide
diversity in the languages and idioms used for providing
meta-descriptions, from simple structured text in metadata schemas
to formal annotations using ontologies, and the technologies for
storing, sharing and exploiting meta-descriptions are also diverse
and evolve rapidly. In addition, there is a proliferation of
schemas and standards related to metadata, resulting in a complex
and moving technological landscape - hence, the need for
specialized knowledge and skills in this area.The Handbook of
Metadata, Semantics and Ontologies is intended as an authoritative
reference for students, practitioners and researchers, serving as a
roadmap for the variety of metadata schemas and ontologies
available in a number of key domain areas, including culture,
biology, education, healthcare, engineering and library science.
