KNOWLEDGE-WEB

Project FP6-507482, January 1 st, 2004 – December 31 st, 2007

Project co-ordinator: Francisco Martín-Recuerda, University of Innsbruck
Contact Person (in Romania): Dr. Angela Ionita, Research Institute for Artificial Intelligence of the Romanian Academy

Objectives:

  • The mission of KnowledgeWeb is to strengthen the European industry and service providers in one of the most important areas of current computer technology: Semantic Web enabled E-work and E-commerce. The project concentrates its efforts around the outreach of this technology to industry. Naturally, this includes education and research efforts to ensure the durability of impact and support of industry. Therefore, Knowledge Web devotes its efforts to the following main areas:
  • Outreach to Industry. The main objective of Knowledge Web's outreach to industry area is to promote greater awareness and faster take-up of Semantic Web technology within Europe in full synergy with the research activity. This outreach will help to reduce time needed to transfer the technology to industry and to market.
  • Outreach to Education. Knowledge Web aims to work towards the establishment of a Virtual Institute for Semantic Web Education (VISWE), which will act as the principal focus for educational activities on Semantic Web.
  • Coordination of Research. The objective of Knowledge Web will be to ensure that the research as performed by the leading groups in this area will be sufficiently coordinated to avoid both duplication and fragmentation. Such coordination is particularly important for the Semantic Web: since it is an inter-disciplinary area, joint collaborations among and across various research communities is necessary. The objective of Knowledge Web is to coordinate the European research effort to make Semantic Web and Semantic Web Services a reality.
