Title
Linked Data, Concepts, and Fuzziness
Abstract
Importance of the Internet is growing. It is not only due to a rising amount of information stored on it, but also due to our rising dependence on it. The search processes are challenging and information presented to us hinges very much on the ability of search engines to visit multiple nodes and index discovered data.
