The Semantic Grid commonly refers to a branch subject under the umbrella of Grid Computing. In a typical semantic grid application, the network resources and services are described in a meaningful way so that the resources can be discovered, aggregated, joined up more readily and automatically. The description typically draws upon the technology from the Semantic Web, such as the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and Web Ontology Language (OWL). In this chapter an overview to the background of the Semantic Grid is given.
