The DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) pro … The DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) program is a United States government sponsored endeavor aimed at providingthe foundation for the next web evolution - the semantic web. The program is funding critical research to develop languages, toolsand techniques for making considerably more of the content on the web machine-understandable. We believe that this will lead tothe next major generation of web technology, and will enable considerably more "machine to machine" (agent-based)communication. The program includes participation from academic researchers, government agencies, software developmentcompanies, and industrial organizations such as the World Wide Web consortium (W3C). The DAML project is also workingclosely with other efforts, including European Union funded Semantic Web projects (e.g. On-to-Knowledge and Ibrow ), and theongoing W3C RDF recommendation effort. In the remainder of this report, we provide a short motivation, description, and statusreport about the program. ption, and statusreport about the program.
