Data (Big Picture)
- Syntax is how information is represented.
- Semantics is what information means.
- Semantics are sometimes borrowed from the natural language.
- Semantics are sometimes inherent to the structure.
- Semantics are sometimes derived from logic. (e.g., RDF is used to describe the
relationship between a (resource, property, value).)
- Schemas describe a particular syntax, as well as the semantics of that
syntax's structure.
- The more syntax and semantics an agent can understand without human
intervention, the more powerful and flexible the agent becomes.
