Abstract
Semantic Web extends the World Wide Web by transforming the Web into more machines processable, and intelligent. Semantic Web enables users to share contents beyond the limits of applications and websites. To successfully implement Semantic Web, technologies are developed to effectively represent, navigate, and create metadata relationship among the information. As synthetic sugar, both RDF and Topic Maps have come up as the leading technologies for successfully for realizing the vision of Semantic Web into reality.   S emantic Web Stack is a layered model representing architecture of the Semantic  Web. The  layered  model  integrates  and defines relationships among the technologies and languages essential for the Semantic Web. Semantic Web Stack is developed originally for the RDF exclusively and has no direct support for the Topic Maps.   However, each layer of the model is equally comparable and applicable to the Topic Maps paradigm. This paper investigates and analyzes the Semantic Web Stack for determining its applicability for  the  Topic  Maps. We  have  come  up  with  the conclusion that the stack has potential for accommodating Topic Maps equally but subjected to little more efforts from the research communities.
