Semantic Caching for Improving Web Affordability
The rapid growth of web content has led to increasingly large webpages, posing significant challenges for Internet affordability, especially in developing countries where data costs remain prohibitively high. We propose semantic caching using Large Language Models (LLMs) to improve web affordability by enabling reuse of semantically similar images within webpages. Analyzing 50 leading news and media websites, encompassing 4,264 images and over 40,000 image pairs, we demonstrate potential for si…

Neural Prioritisation for Web Crawling
Given the vast scale of the Web, crawling prioritisation techniques based on link graph traversal, popularity, link analysis, and textual content are frequently applied to surface documents that are most likely to be valuable. While existing techniques are effective for keyword-based search, both retrieval methods and user search behaviours are shifting from keyword-based matching to natural language semantic matching. The remarkable success of applying semantic matching and quality signals dur…

Analysing semantic data storage in Distributed Ledger Technologies for Data Spaces
Data spaces are emerging as decentralised infrastructures that enable sovereign, secure, and trustworthy data exchange among multiple participants. To achieve semantic interoperability within these environments, the use of semantic web technologies and knowledge graphs has been proposed. Although distributed ledger technologies (DLT) fit as the underlying infrastructure for data spaces, there remains a significant gap in terms of the efficient storage of semantic data on these platforms. This p…

- From Semantic Web and MAS to Agentic AI: A Unified Narrative of the Web of Agents
Tatiana Petrova, Boris Bliznioukov, Aleksandr Puzikov, Radu State

This is the main square in Piran, Slovenia, early morning today. Only 10 minutes away, the 22nd Extended Semantic Web Conference ESWC 2025 will take place, starting on Sunday, June 1st, 2025. I'm looking forward to meeting dear colleagues as well as old and new friends, listening to exciting keynotes, great presentations, and many more activities.

The Trust Fabric: Decentralized Interoperability and Economic Coordination for the Agentic Web
The fragmentation of AI agent ecosystems has created urgent demands for interoperability, trust, and economic coordination that current protocols -- including MCP (Hou et al., 2025), A2A (Habler et al., 2025), ACP (Liu et al., 2025), and Cisco's AGP (Edwards, 2025) -- cannot address at scale. We present the Nanda Unified Architecture, a decentralized framework built around three core innovations: fast DID-based agent discovery through distributed registries, semantic agent cards with verifiable…

Multi-Tool Analysis of User Interface & Accessibility in Deployed Web-Based Chatbots
In this work, we present a multi-tool evaluation of 106 deployed web-based chatbots, across domains like healthcare, education and customer service, comprising both standalone applications and embedded widgets using automated tools (Google Lighthouse, PageSpeed Insights, SiteImprove Accessibility Checker) and manual audits (Microsoft Accessibility Insights). Our analysis reveals that over 80% of chatbots exhibit at least one critical accessibility issue, and 45% suffer from missing semantic str…

Jelly: a fast and convenient RDF serialization format
Existing RDF serialization formats such as Turtle, N-Triples, and JSON-LD are widely used for communication and storage in knowledge graph and Semantic Web applications. However, they suffer from limitations in performance, compression ratio, and lack of native support for RDF streams. To address these shortcomings, we introduce Jelly, a fast and convenient binary serialization format for RDF data that supports both batch and streaming use cases. Jelly is designed to maximize serialization thro…

Towards Safety and Security Testing of Cyberphysical Power Systems by Shape Validation
The increasing complexity of cyberphysical power systems leads to larger attack surfaces to be exploited by malicious actors and a higher risk of faults through misconfiguration. We propose to meet those risks with a declarative approach to describe cyberphysical power systems and to automatically evaluate security and safety controls. We leverage Semantic Web technologies as a well-standardized framework, providing languages to specify ontologies, rules and shape constraints. We model infrastr…

Portoroz coastline by night. Tomorrow, ESWC 2025 will start with 2 days of workshops & tutorials, before the main conference with the "official" opening on June 3rd. Looking forward to a great conference! :)

From this year on, ESWC will be under the umbrella of SWSA, the Semantic Web Science Association, to secure financial sustainability for the upcoming years after its previous supporting organisation STI was dissolved in 2023. Basics about the transition are given by Elena Simperl, president of SWSA.
