9 9 Motivation for Semantic Web

10 10 Semantic Web Content: New “Users” applications agents

11 11 Some Professions around Semantic Web Content Agents Annotations Ontologies Software engineers Ontology engineers Web designers Content creators Logic, Proof and Trust AI Professionals Mobile Computing Professionals

12 12 Semantic Web: Resource Integration Shared ontology Web resources / services / DBs / etc. Semantic annotation

13 13 What else Can be Annotated for Semantic Web ? Web resources / services / DBs / etc. Shared ontology Web users (profiles, preferences) Web access devices Web agents / applications External world resources

14 14 Word-Wide Correlated Activities Semantic Web Grid Computing Web Services Agentcities Agentcities is a global, collaborative effort to construct an open network of on-line systems hosting diverse agent based services. WWW is more and more used for application to application communication. The programmatic interfaces made available are referred to as Web services. The goal of the Web Services Activity is to develop a set of technologies in order to bring Web services to their full potential FIPA FIPA is a non-profit organisation aimed at producing standards for the interoperation of heterogeneous software agents. Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation Wide-area distributed computing, or "grid” technologies, provide the foundation to a number of large-scale efforts utilizing the global Internet to build distributed computing and communications infrastructures.

25 25 DAI Course: Exercise

26 26 Task for the Exercise (according to A. Raja) (1) Consider the home of the future where there are software agents in a mobile environment that are helping to manage the running of a house. There will be: §(1) Personal assistant agents that will know of your preferences of temperature, humidity, light, sound, etc., and who you want to interact with; §(2) There will be agents that can measure appropriate environmental conditions with specific devices; §(3) There will be agents that effect appropriate environmental conditions with specific devices; §(4) There will be agents that control expenses for the use of appropriate devices; §(5) There will be agents that manage the telephone communications; §(6) There will be agents that manage security issues such as fire, earthquake, flood protection, etc.

27 27 Task for the Exercise (according to A. Raja) (2) §Assume that the agents are heterogenous (i.e. have not be generated by one designer), for example when you get a new device it will come with an agent; for instance, the heating measurement agent may not come from the same company as the air-conditioning agent. §Think about the possibility of having these agents work together. What are the capabilities of the agents, what type of cooperation needs to occur among them, are there needs for the agents to negotiate, are there situations where local objectives are at odds with global objectives such as minimizing electrical usage? What type of information needs to be exchanged among the agents?

28 28 Task for the Exercise (according to A. Raja) (3) §How would you organize the agents – would you have a hierarchy of agents in terms of their control responsibilities? How would you allow agents to integrate new agents into the system, for instance, when you buy a new device. §What are the specific characteristics required by a language in order that these agents can share information? If there are no dedicated resources for each agent, but rather a pool of resources that can be used by agents, what new issues does this introduce? Do agents need to reason about the intentions of other agents?

29 29 Task for the Exercise (according to A. Raja) (4) §In answering these and related issues that you may consider, please be concrete with specific and numerous examples/scenarios. You should first start out the effort by detailing the collection of agents that you see in the house of the future, what their responsibilities are, and their patterns of interaction with other agents. Including figures, it should be at least 3 to 5 pages long.

41 41 Semantic Metanetwork for Metadata Management Semantic Metanetwork is considered formally as the set of semantic networks, which are put on each other in such a way that links of every previous semantic network are in the same time nodes of the next network. In a Semantic Metanetwork every higher level controls semantic structure of the lower level. Terziyan V., Puuronen S., Reasoning with Multilevel Contexts in Semantic Metanetworks, In: P. Bonzon, M. Cavalcanti, R. Nossun (Eds.), Formal Aspects in Context, Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2000, pp. 107-126.

42 42 Petri Metanetwork for Management Dynamics A metapetrinet is able not only to change the marking of a petrinet but also to reconfigure dynamically its structure Each level of the new structure is an ordinary petrinet of some traditional type. A basic level petrinet simulates the process of some application. The second level, i.e. the metapetrinet, is used to simulate and help controlling the configuration change at the basic level.
