  1. Resources, Agents and Processes in the context of Next Generation World Wide Web Dr. Evgeny Osipov Head of Communication Networks group Luleå University of Technology

  2. Outline • The World Wide Web • This dissertation is about: • Resources • Agents • Processes • Context • The contribution is…

  3. The WWW ’smartness’ evolution

  4. Where are wegoing? • ” By 2029, sufficient computation to simulate the entire human brain, which I estimate at about 1016 (10 million billion) calculations per second (cps), will cost about a dollar. By that time, intelligent machines will combine the subtle and supple skills that humans now excel in (essentially our powers of pattern recognition) with ways in which machines are already superior, such as remembering trillions of facts accurately, searching quickly through vast databases, and downloading skills and knowledge.” • Raymond Kurzweil. A pioneer in the fields of optical character recognition (OCR), text-to-speech synthesis, speech recognition technology, and electronic keyboard instruments. He is the author of several books on health, artificial intelligence (AI), transhumanism, the technological singularity, and futurism.

  5. How to make the machines intelligent? Semantic (20XX?) AI 1956 • The dissertation takes a new turn on the spiral of scientificdevelopment Computers 194x Hypertext 1945 The Internet 1969 Web (1990)

  6. The major categories in the dissertation are… • Resources • Agents • Processes • Context

  7. “The Way to a Man's Heart is Through His Stomach”… • Problem: to find an effective way of communicating the functionality between heterogeneous objects to achieve a certain goal • Humans always wanted to identify an ”ambassador” in their social relationships.

  8. Someuncitedreferences: The Matrix (1999) • In artificial intelligence, an intelligent agent (IA) is an entity which observes and acts upon an environment and directs its activity towards achieving goals

  9. Someuncitedreferences -2: The Golden Compass (1997) • Heterogeneous resources are involved in complex goal driven inteactions (processes) • Agent is a representative of a resource • Behavior of agents is different in different contexts

  10. Someuncitedreferences -3: Hobbit – Tolkien (1937) Agents provide interfaces to their resources

  11. Fundamental questions… • How to describe a resource? –solutions exist for ’traditional’ web resources… • Ontologies • RDF • OWL • XML • New type of resources that exist in physical world emerged – THINGS; • The most complicated intelligent agents are rational, thinking human beings; • The dissertation adapts the resource description framework to include smart physical devices and makes humans as a native part of the electronic information exchange process

  12. Fundametal questions… • How to involve resources in a complex functionality? • Some solutions exists: SOA, Middleware The dissertation describes a novel framework for integrating heterogeneous resources in the global understanding environment.

  13. Fundamental questions… • How to make resources adaptable in different contexts? • This is a challenge. • The dissertation describes a resource description language that allow to reflect the dynamics of resource interactions.

  14. The dissertation of Oleksiy Khriyenko… • Considers Semantic Web as a holistic ecosystem – Technology+Humans+Process; • Addresses a broad and challenging task; • Contributes to the knowledge of building more versatile and intelligent systems out of interacting intelligent agents in a multi-agent system.

  15. Resources, Agents, Processes in the context of Next Generation World Wide Web Evgeny Osipov Luleå University of Technology

  16. This dissertation looks at… • Well this question is not new: • Artificial intelligence (1956) is the intelligence of machines and the branch of computer science which aims to create it. Major AI textbooks define the field as "the study and design of intelligent agents,"[1] where an intelligent agent is a system that perceives its environment and takes actions which maximize its chances of success.[ • (Spiral development) • Look at languagesemantics!! Languages describinglanguages • This makes this topicchallenging • Another turn
