There’s a new Semantic Web group in town.
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has formed the Rule Interchange Format (RIF) working group with the job of standardizing the rules that propel data across the Web, regardless of format.
Rules are a cornerstone of the Semantic Web, the idea that the Internet can be tapped for information as though it was one, giant database.
W3C said an RIF can trigger the integration and transformation of data from multiple sources.
