Welcome

Websoft Research Group


The World Wide Web, which was invented by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1989, has become indispensable in our life. The Web makes business and our daily life much easier. In 1998, Tim proposed a roadmap for the Semantic Web. In 2001, W3C started the Semantic Web Activity. In 2006, Tim and his colleagues called for creating a science of the Web.

Since 2002, we have been studying on the Semantic Web technologies, together with the research community. In Nov. 2009, we founded the Web Software Research Group at the Department of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing University, China. Our research interests include Semantic Web, Web science and novel software technology for the Web. Our missions are to conduct cutting-edge research on Web softwares and to make the vision of Semantic Web become reality.
