I'm standing at a computer at the Oslo airport, so I'll keep it
short. In the following paper, I discuss three levels of semantics:
lightweight, middleweight, and heavyweight: http://www.jfsowa.com/pubs/futures.pdf
. We can also distinguish three levels of data: unstrucut:ured,
semistructured, and highly structured. That allows 9 combinations of
data structuring and semantics applied to the data. Much of the
discussion on this forum has been at the level of highly structured data
with heavyweight semantics. A search engine typically uses
lightweight semantics with unstructured data. Siri uses middleweight
semantics applied to semistructured data. All these points require
more clarification. See the article for some. John
