Challenge: Wide-Area Knowledge Representation
Challenge: Wide-Area Knowledge Representation
Goal
- Evolve From Global Hypermedia to Ubiquitous Knowledge Webs.
Approach
- Bootstrap: Build assertion infrastructure out from a new name service.
- Efficient Algorithms: Apply invertible knowledge representation techniques.
- Engineering Difficulties
- Latency: Random access to anywhere on the planet is too slow.
- Caching: Employ heuristic methods to dynamically cache assertions.
- Security: Develop assertion level security mechanisms.
Interpretation Difficulties
- Translation: Negotiate meaning across multiple semantics.
- Different Domain Vocabularies
- Different Languages
Impact
- Next Major Revolution in Wide-Area Networks
