Abstract
The World Wide Web has grown over the years from simple hypertext documents to highly interactive pages, where users can also contribute to the content by posting comments and so on. However, most data is extremely unstructured and cannot be easily automatically processed by machines. Presently, most search engines are keyword based and searches may also result in irrelevant results due to the mere presence of matching keywords. To eradicate this problem, the concept of semantic web has been introduced in which the data follows a uniform standard. Everything present in the document has a specific meaning attached to it. Such standardized documents can easily be understood by machines. Due to the concept of semantic web, search engines can be made to understand the meaning of the query and thus the most relevant links can be retrieved. To implement semantic web technologies, the concept of ontology is used. In this paper, an attempt is made to explore how semantic web and ontology are being used to implement efficient search engines.
