Managing vagueness/fuzziness is starting to play an important role in Semantic Web research, with a large number of research efforts underway. Foundations of Fuzzy Logic and Semantic Web Languages provides a rigorous and succinct account of the mathematical methods and tools used for representing and reasoning with fuzzy information within Semantic Web languages. The book focuses on the three main streams of Semantic Web languages: Triple languages RDF and RDFS; Conceptual languages OWL and OWL 2, and their profiles OWL EL, OWL QL, and OWL RL; and Rule-based languages, such as SWRL and RIF.
