The World Wide Web (WWW) contains a large amount of information which is currently being represented using the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and the Extensible Markup Language (XML). However, HTML and XML have a limited capability to describe the relationships (schemes or ontologies) with respect to objects. The DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML), through the use of ontologies, provides a very powerful way to describe objects and their relationships to other objects. DAML is an extension to XML and the Resource Description Framework (RDF). This effort focused on developing WebScripter to be an incentive for DAML usage for both information producers and information consumers by making it easy to build reports of existing DAML sources. In addition to generating a report of DAML sources, Webscripter can pull information from multiple DAML sources and implicitly define relationships that can be used to align different ontologies.
