This slide presentation of lecture material was used as part of a course given at The University of Edinburgh School of Informatics. This lecture discusses Description Logic and terminology (such as ABox and TBox) and concepts (such as existential and universal restriction). Discusses OWL and how it is layered onto RDF and RDF Schema, with an RDF/XML syntax, to support inferencing. Object Properties, datatypes, restrictions, axioms, and cardinality in OWL are also discussed.

- Expresses data in serializations such as RDF/XML, N-Triples, Turtle, N3, Trig, JSON-LD, and RDFa.
- Knows that Web Ontology Language (OWL) is available in multiple "flavors" that are variously optimized for expressivity, performant reasoning, or for applications involving databases or business rules
- Understands the principles and practice of inferencing.
- Understands the role of formally declared domains and ranges for inferencing.
- Knows Web Ontology Language, or OWL (2004), as a RDF vocabulary of properties and classes that extend support for expressive data modeling and automated inferencing (reasoning).
