Big data and semantic web, challenges and opportunities a survey

Abstract

In recent years, vast and complex amounts of data are being created and making it difficult for traditional data processing applications to manage them. The coming of the Internet prompted monstrous spike in the volume of information being made and made accessible. World Wide Web consortium W3C and international standardization body of the web spread the Semantic Web. It is an extended form of current web which provide easier way to search, reuse, combine and share information. In the last few years, major businesses corporations have demonstrated interest in incorporating semantic web technology with big data for added value. Indeed this incorporation has some benefits as well; it increases end-users ability to self-manage data from various sources, it on focuses changing business environments and varying user needs and handles concepts and relationships, manages terminology while connecting different data from varied data sources. For Social Network Analysis (SNA) new methods are needed by combining Big Data and Semantic Web technologies as a way to utilize and add capacities to existing frameworks. Moreover, the fast changing business requirements and latest industry culture of Agile Development needs a robust yet flexible solution for Business Intelligence and by using distributed enterprise level ontologies Data Warehousing can be incorporated. This paper is an attempt to focus on effects of incorporating Big Data with Semantic web, how Semantic Web making Big Data smarter, revisit the Big Data and Semantic Web challenges and opportunities, relationship between them and finally we summarizes with future direction of this integration

Applications of Big Data in Media Organizations

“…Hence, the challenge here is to derive human-conceivable meanings from big loads of machine-readable data, in order to draw valid conclusions. This issue can be addressed by examining the convergence of the SW and big data (Bello-Orgaz et al 2016;Ahmed and Ahmed 2018). While we are at an early stage (Gross 2014), it seems that exploitation of big data through the use of ST is a real-life scenario.…”
