The document introduces the Semantic Web and Resource Description Framework (RDF). It defines the Semantic Web as a web of data that machines can understand by converting web pages into a format machines can process directly. Currently, web pages are written in HTML which machines cannot understand the meaning behind. RDF provides a standard using triples of subjects, predicates, and objects to describe resources on the web in a way that adds semantic meaning and allows machines to help find relevant information. An example is provided to illustrate using RDF triples to describe a person named Eric Miller.
