development of technologies that support the automation,
integration and reuse of data across various applications. To
facilitate the effectiveness and efficiency of this Activity,
the Semantic Web Coordination Group is tasked to provide a
forum for managing the interrelationships and
interdependencies among groups focusing on standards and
technologies that relate to this goals of this Activity.

by way of incompatible standards and technologies. The
Coordination Group has the latitude for chartering additional
Working Groups in order to support the Activity.
