The semantic Web aims to create a universal medium for exchanging data, so information in different locations and formats can be automatically shared, processed, integrated, and reused by disparate organizations and individuals. The Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) provides a low-cost migration path for porting existing databases to the semantic Web. Applications and services based on SKOS technologies and standards are greatly improving the efficiencies of in-house operations, scientific research, business-to-business interactions, and consumer services and applications.
