Dry goods semantic web, Web3.0, Web3, metauniverse, these concepts are still confused? (top)

With the explosion of the concept of meta universe , There are also many new scientific and technological words . Some words are easily misunderstood , It has even formed a habitual mix , But we need to sort out the context of some words relatively rigorously . In some cases , It will help you make more accurate judgments and understandings .

The concept of the metauniverse is very big , There is no final conclusion at present , Let's put this concept to a later discussion . First , Let's talk about semantic web 、Web3.0 and Web3.

The semantic web

The semantic web , yes W3C The organization is interested in WWW Expansion of the World Wide Web . The concept , stay 1999 Was founded by the World Wide Web Berners-Lee Put forward ：

I have a dream for the Web [in which computers] become capable of analyzing all the data on the Web – the content, links, and transactions between people and computers. A "Semantic Web", which makes this possible, has yet to emerge, but when it does, the day-to-day mechanisms of trade, bureaucracy and our daily lives will be handled by machines talking to machines. The "intelligent agents" people have touted for ages will finally materialize.

Semantic Web provides a general framework by formulating standards , Make all data in different applications 、 Enterprises and communities can share freely and be reused . It is also regarded as an aggregation of data and information in different applications and systems . The technology involved in this, such as Resource Description Framework(RDF) and Web Ontology Language(OWL) etc. .

• RDF It provides a general data format and data exchange protocol , The purpose is to make any network resources can be used uniquely URL To express , Simply put, you can directly see the corresponding content by entering the URL link through the browser . In this way, we can catalog the network resources , For the next step of mechanized processing （machine-readable） And the final Semantic Web （sematic） It lays the foundation for the realization of .

• OWL It is a language family , Through knowledge representation and reasoning (Knowledge representation and reasoning-KRR, KR&R, KR²), To describe the logical relationship between documents or applications on the Internet （ For example, nouns define objects and verbs define the relationship between objects ）. The Internet has this logical relationship , Many internal processes can be realized by computer , Make the network more humanized and intelligent , Save the search time of users' required resources .（ Knowledge representation and reasoning are at the core of the AI challenge , Through the analysis and understanding of data , So that computers can solve complex problems like people , For example, medical diagnosis and language communication . The earliest research appeared in 1959 year ,Allen Newell and Herbert A. Simon Proposed General Problem Solver System ）

Web3.0

2006 year ,Berners-Lee Describe the semantic web as Web3.0 An integral part of .

Web3.0 It's the contrast Web1.0 and Web2.0 Defined by the concept of ：

• Web1.0：1991 Year to 2004 year , We call it Web1.0 Time , Web pages are static content .

• Web2.0：2004 To this day , We call it Web2.0 Time , Web content can be interactive , There are forums 、 Blog 、 Social networks 、 social media ,Wiki And so on .

• Web3.0： future , We call it Web3.0 Time , It is also the next era of the Internet . By adding a lot of semantic modifiers to Internet content , Let the data of the Internet become “ Machine readable ”, Finally, the Internet becomes more and more intelligent .

Evolution of the Web 3.0 : History and the FutureWhat is Web 3.0?, What makes Web3 different from the previous versions? Why should we move to web3?, Challenges and future of Web3https://insights2techinfo.com/evolution-of-the-web-3-0-history-and-the-future/

here we are 2013 year , exceed 4 Millions of website domain names have been included based on HTML Semantic Web modifier of , These are the foundations of Internet intelligence , Because we all know that it is more convenient for machine learning through labeled data . however ,Web3.0 The implementation of cannot rely solely on the Semantic Web , A lot of other technical support is needed , Like artificial intelligence 、 Cloud computing 、 Edge of computing 、 Communication technology, etc .

stay Web2.0 Time , We mainly use PC Network connection with smartphone ,Web Application design is more through “ Single row sliding ” The way to present the content , This is a PC And the best content presentation mode that mobile terminals have given priority to today , All websites are also developed and maintained in this way .

Get into Web3.0 Time ,Web Applications are no longer just designed for our current usage scenarios and forms . The future computing platform may be converted from mobile phones to glasses , The presentation logic of content will change . And more devices will pass Web3.0 Network framework to access the Internet , Like wearable devices 、AR/VR equipment 、 Internet of things interfaces and smart cars , The use of the Internet will expand explosively .Web3.0 In the era of Web application , Each other can actively send data for communication and learning , All data content can be understood and executed by machines , Data has been semantic . stay Web3.0 Time , Users can not only find the content they need , And you can find the content you need faster .

 Learn: What is Web 3.0? – Polygon TimesWhile Web 2.0 was marked by a shift to user generated website content, Web 3.0 will usher in the era of open, trustless and permission-less web environments. The networks will be open-source, decentralized and ultimately permission-less.https://polygontimes.com/learn-what-is-web-3-0/

today , Many times we think that the semantic web is equivalent to Web3.0. however , Strictly speaking ,Web3.0 It contains the Semantic Web . This slowly forming habit makes the concept of semantic web not often mentioned by people , and Web3.0 It has gradually become a synonym for the next generation of Internet .

Web3

Web3 The concept of is in 2014 year , By the co-founder of Ethereum Gavin Wood Put forward . It describes the next generation Internet form based on blockchain . It can already be seen Web3 The perspective of this concept and Berners-Lee be based on “machine-readable” Proposed semantic web （Web3.0） It's completely different . In terms of time , The popularity of blockchain concept is 2008 In the middle of the year, Ben proposed bitcoin , and 2006 year Berners-Lee Already mentioned and discussed Web3.0 了 . therefore , More directly , There is no blessing of blockchain , Theoretically, it can also be realized Berners-Lee Proposed Web3.0, namely “machine-readable” Internet form .

however , All concepts are constantly developing .2021 year , With the explosion of the concept of the meta universe ,Web3 This concept has received considerable attention .Lemuel Park As BrightEdge Co founder of the company &CTO, Put forward Web3 yes Web3.0 Another evolution of the concept , Put forward Web3 yes Web3.0 Another evolution of the concept .Park It is believed that the next generation Internet should not be built only based on routing query and routing update pathfinding nodes , Instead, every node is an intelligent node , Can make smart decisions faster , And this structure should be distributed . With the diversity of media content forms and the richness of content , The creators of content should be concerned and valued , People should have their own digital content .

And then , More media platforms and news are talking about Web3, Will compare Web1.0 and Web2.0,Web3 The emphasized concept of decentralized blockchain is also similar to Web3.0 Semantic web and other technologies are integrated , Finally, a new definition and explanation of the three iterations of the Internet are formed ：

• Web1.0：“ Can be read "(read)

• Web2.0：“ Can be read + Can write "(read+write)

• Web3.0：“ Can be read + Can write + Have " (read+write+own)

Here we can summarize ： In general, the semantic web can be equated with Web3.0, But actually Web3.0 The technology involved includes semantic web . With Web3 and Web3.0 Fusion of concepts , People now also think that decentralization belongs to Web3.0 A new technology , Is a necessary condition for the next generation Internet , Simply put, yes Berners-Lee Proposed Web3.0 Made a conceptual upgrade .

however , If you simply mention Web3, People still prefer to refer to some technologies and applications based on blockchain and decentralization . such as ： Public chain 、 Distributed storage 、 The creator economy 、 X to Earn、SocialFi、GameFi、DeFi、NFT、DAO wait .

Now we have introduced the Semantic Web ,Web3.0 and Web3 The difference between , In the next issue, we will talk about their relationship with the metauniverse and the characteristics and differences of the development of the metauniverse at home and abroad .
