Abstract

The Web Ontology Language (OWL) describes classes, properties, and relations among these conceptual objects in a way that facilitates machine interpretability of Web content. OWL is the result of the Web Ontology Working Group (now closed) and descends from DAML+Oil, which is in turn an amalgamation of DAML and OIL.
