Description
Semantics in Business Systems begins with a description of what semantics are and how they affect business systems. It examines four main
aspects of the application of semantics to systems, specifically: How do we infer meaning from unstructured information, how do application
systems make meaning as they operate, how do practitioners uncover meaning in business settings, and how do we understand and communicate
what we have deduced? This book illustrates how this applies to the future of application system development, especially how it informs
and affects Web services and business rule- based approaches, and how semantics will play out with XML and the semantic Web. The book
also contains a quick reference guide to related terms and technologies. It is part of Morgan Kaufmann's series of Savvy Manager's Guides.
