Esperonto Services IST-2001-34373 Application Service Provision of Semantic Annotation, Aggregation, Indexing and Routing of Textual, Multimedia, and Multilingual Web Content http://www.esperonto.net
Project Rationale and Objectives • Rationale • We want to build the SW (Info overload, task delegation), but do not want to loose content of current Web • HTML will remain a dominant web language for many years • Database generated pages will gain popularity (.com) • XML/RDF/... family will slowly take over • Objectives • Bridge between current Web and SW (Upgrading existing content) • Added value applications on top of SW
Main Innovations • Annotation beyond static pages • Dynamic pages (DB generated) • Webservices • Multiple ontology management • Multi lingual • UI level, annotation level, ontology level • (3D) visualization of SW content • Semantic Indexes and P2P routing for localization and retrieval of SW content by agents
Expected Results A(nnotation)SP (Wrappers: tools and methodology) Ontology construction, management and alignment tools and methodology Multilingual facilities at the ontology, content and user interface level Navigation and visualization techniques for Semantic Web content Application domains Virtual cultural tour Fund finder Scientific discovery Expected results, application domains
R&D Topics and Infrastructure Issues for FP6 • Ontologies are moving objects • Lifecycle methodologies and tools • Ontology alignment • Semantic Web organization vs current web organization • Semantic indexes • Semantic routers (P2P) • Business models of SW technology

The World-Wide Web is changing the nature of software development to a distributive plug & play process. IBROW3 integrates research on heterogeneous databases, interoperability and web technology with knowledge-system technology and ontologies. The project, thus, aims at providing intelligent reasoning services on the Web, as opposed to the more common information services. The broker needs to reason about characteristics of PSMs, for example about their competence First SW projects: IBROW3 (Esprit), IBROW (IST) Then (1998) Now Web services Semantics Agents@SW From Info Overload to Task Delegation Annotation
