Agents on the Semantic Web – a roadmap to the future An arial view from 50 000 feet
Background litterature • Spinning the Semantic web by J. Hendler & all, MIT Press Ltd, 2003-03-04 • Agents and the Semantic Web, James Hendler, University of Maryland – IEEE Inteligent Systems, March/April 2001 • Semantic Web Road map, Tim Burnerners-Lee, 1998-10-14 • Semantic Web @ 5 – Current Status and Future Promise of the Semantic Web, James Hendler/UoM and Ora Lassila/Nokia, Semantic Technology Conference, March 6-9 2006 San Jose, California • Agent Technology Roadmap - A Roadmap for Agent Based Computing, AgentLink 2005
Motivations • Semantic Web is about to leave pure research and slowly picked up by industry • More research is needed, but most of the fundamental technology seems to be there. • Integration of the fundamental technologies is the main challenge • The thesis proposes an integration of Semantic Web, Semantic Web Services and Agents. A roadmap for an integration of those three technologies are described.
Introduction • Definitions and short descriptions of: • Semantic Web • Semantic Web Services • Agents
Semantic Web – today (state of art) • Semantic Web Stack development: • Lower layers are mature in the context of research, i.e. XML, RDF, Ontology, ... • ”The hen and egg problem” in practical use.

SEnSE: Short description • SEnSE will provide an environment where • Users can delegate change tracking tasks to software agents that proactively monitor the evolution and changes of design artefacts (tools) • Notifications can be based on the semantic structure of documents / resources rather than simple version changes • Information about changes can be done for indirectly relevant artefacts (tools) as well
