Ideas for the Provision of Ontology Access in Grid Environments

  • Conference paper
Knowledge and Data Management in GRIDs

Abstract

Ontologies are the backbone of the Semantic Web. Current grid architectures do not consider their usage, and there are no protocols nor standards in the Grid community for dealing with them. Therefore, the provision of appropriate means for accessing, querying and using ontologies effectively is a key factor if we want to enrich the current grid with semantic technologies and to support progress towards the next generation Grid, that is, the Semantic Grid.
