Abstract

This paper discusses the application of web wrapping technology in extracting metadata from web sources. This capability has been incorporated into a software tool known as Dynamic Dublin Core/Resource Description Framework Metadata Editor (DDC/RDF-Editor) which supports metadata development and management for resources in the World Wide Web. One key feature of the editor is the ability to automatically extract relevant values of metadata elements from the web sources in question according to the Dublin Core (DC) Metadata Standard and represent it in Resource Description Framework(RDF) language.
