Semantically representing a target entity using a semantic object
First Claim
1. A method of semantically representing information resource using a semantic object,the method comprising;
- creating the semantic object on a computer-readable storage medium to represent the information resource;
linking the semantic object to the information resource to represent the information resource using the semantic object;
the semantic object comprising multiple metadata entries which identify rules regarding at least one of;
how the semantic object (i) interacts with, (ii) is manipulated by, and (iii) is displayed to human beings;
storing in a metadata entry of the multiple metadata entries of t re semantic object, metadata regarding the information resource;
storing in a metadata entry of the multiple metadata entries of the semantic object, an attribute that specifies a time to live (TTL) specifying expiration of the semantic object.

Abstract
A data construct called a semcard is a semantic (meaning-based) software object including semantic meta-tags and meta-data that describes a target object or thing. A target object can be any type of digital or physical entity or identifier, or it can be tacit knowledge, such as ideas, concepts, processes or other data existing in a user'"'"'s mind, provided that the user represents this knowledge in the semcard. A semcard embodies information about its own structure—rules, history, state, policies and goals regarding automation, display, access permissions, sharing and other operations of the semcard and any optional target object. It can also represent a semantic link between two semcards, or a semantically typed link or a standard Web hyperlink between a semcard and its referent target. A collection of semcards represents a knowledge network; single semcards, and knowledge networks, can be browsed, shared, searched, disseminated, manipulated, displayed, organized, and stored.

19. A system for semantically representing an information resource using a semantic object, the system, comprising:
-
a set of computing devices connected via a network; wherein, one computing device of the set of computing devices; creates the semantic object to represent the information resource, the semantic object comprising meta-tags which identify information regarding how the semantic object interacts with human beings, based on an instruction to create the semantic object from a user having access to the information resource; links the semantic object to the information resource to represent the information resource using the semantic object; wherein, an attribute that specifies a definition of qualification of a recipient of the semantic object is stored in a metadata entry of the semantic object.

20. A method of semantically representing an information resource using a semantic object, comprising:
-
creating the semantic object to represent the information resource, seeking to detect the information resource that is represented by the semantic object; seeking to detect the information resource that is represented by the semantic object; wherein the information resource is detected upon the information resource being published on the Internet; linking the semantic object to the information resource to represent the information resource using the semantic object; the semantic object comprising meta-tags and corresponding metadata which identify information regarding how the semantic object is displayed; wherein the metadata includes a rule that specifies an expiration date of the semantic object and determines plurality of actions which may be taken upon the expiration of the semantic object, wherein, an attribute that specifies a definition of qualification of a recipient of the semantic object is stored in a metadata entry of the semantic object.
