Concepts

Web 3.0 which is the third generation of Internet-based services is referred

to as intelligent web or semantic web with technologies that promote
common data formats like big data, linked data, cloud computing, 3D
visualization, and augmented reality. The idea behind Web 3.0 is to analyse
data and integrate and link them in order to have more effective discovery,
improve data management, support accessibility of mobile Internet, and
simulate creativity and innovation. Also, Web 3.0 facilitates accessibility for
anyone, anywhere, and anytime by using mobile devices.
WEB 3.0 EXPANDED DEFINITIONS
Web 3.0 can be defined as the third generation of the web enabled by the
convergence of several key emerging technology trends such as:
UBIQUITOUS CONNECTIVITY
Broadband adoption
Mobile Internet access
Mobile devices
NETWORK COMPUTING
Software-as-a-service business models
Web services interoperability
Distributed computing (P2P, grid computing, hosted "cloud computing"
server farms)
OPEN TECHNOLOGIES
Open APIs and protocols
Open data formats
Open-source software platforms
Open data (Creative Commons, Open Data License, etc.)
OPEN IDENTITY
Open Identity (OpenID)
Open reputation
Portable identity and personal data (for example, the ability to port your
user account and search history from one service to another)
THE INTELLIGENT WEB
Semantic Web Technologies RDE, OWL, SWRL, SPARQL, Sematic
application platforms, and statement-based data stores such as triple
stores, tuple stores and associative databases
Distributed databases - or "The World Wide Database" (wide-area
distributed database interoperability enabled by Semantic Web
technologies)
Intelligent applications (natural language processing, machine learning,
machine reasoning, autonomous agents)
CHARACTERISTICS OF WEB 3.0
There are four major characteristics of Web 3.0 namely; intelligence,
personalization, interoperability, and virtualization.
Intelligence applications on Web 3.0 is incorporated with different artificial
intelligence tools and techniques which means that it can directly do
intelligent analysis with possible finest output even without much human
intervention.
Personalization personal and individual preferences of the user are
considered during information processing, search, and formation of
personalized portal on the web.
Interoperability - applications on Web 3.0 are easy to customize and can
independently work on different kinds of devices.
Virtualization - it uses high end of three-dimensional graphics to create a
3D environment for 3D web applications.
Web 3.0 offers many tools and services for different kinds of web
applications on the internet, as shown in Figure 1:

ACTIVITY #2: Search the internet to gather information on the following topics. Pass your
finding through a PowerPoint presentation.
1. Web 3.0 features
2. Web 3.0 Applications and their functions
3. Latest trends in Web 3.o
Important things to Remember
Web 1.0 was the original state of the web- a static information basket.

Web 2.0 gave the birth to interactivity and collaboration.

Web 3.0 gives an intelligent and improved interactivity and overall user experience.
