Abstract

The set of issues associated with the formation of a single Russian electronic knowledge space is considered. This task, first formulated in the Russian Presidential Decree On Approval of the Foundations of a State Cultural Policy, has become particularly urgent in the context of the so-called Big Challenges, preconditioned by the development of scientific knowledge and technologies. To solve this task, it is necessary to develop a tool kit based on the Semantic Web technology, using scientific electronic libraries and other data arrays, as well as classifications, thesauruses, ontologies, and systems of metadata and other tools for subject area representation. The creation of a single Russian electronic knowledge space may be referred to nationwide projects, and the RAS scientific organizations and the country’s leading universities should play the leading role in it.
