A BRIEF OVERVIEW ON INFORMATION RETRIEVAL IN SEMANTIC WEB

Information retrieval technology has been central to the success of the Web. For semantic web documents or annotations to have an impact, they will have to be compatible with Web based indexing and retrieval technology. We discuss some of the underlying problems and issues central to extending information retrieval systems to handle annotations in semantic web languages There is need to organize that data in formal manner so that user can easily exploit them. To retrieve information from documents, we have many Information Retrieval techniques. Current Information Retrieval (IR) techniques are not so advanced that they can be able to exploit semantic knowledge within documents and give precise result. IR technology is major factor responsible for handling annotations in Semantic Web (SW) languages. Knowledgeable representation languages are used for retrieving information
