| Sumario: | Demands of the Information Society (IS) are a real concern for scientists from several fields with respect to issues of information organization, storage, representation e retrieval. Information Science studies (IS) use resources of other fields, and, in this setting, "Web Semantics", which is an evolution of the initial web project, becomes relevant, and it aims at offering, by means of automatized computational languages, higher precision in the retrieval of information. This paper’s goal is to identify the convergence points amongst IS demands and the potentialities of Web Semantics in the solving of informational problems found. The concept’s main elements identified (foundations, principles and tools) are contextualized in a survey published between 2014 and 2019 in the Base de Dados de Artigos de Periódicos em Ciência da Informação (Brapci). Based on this survey, a board with the author's view on some foundations and an analysis with indication for informational needs have been developed. The results lead to the conclusion that Web Semantics contributes for a new perspective in the developing of new technologies which have been promoting significant changes in society, altering its behavior, demands and needs, and are in consonance with the search for semantic processing of information by means of automatization. |
