IRS support for OWL-S and WSMO
This event took place on Monday 21 June 2004 at 12:30

Dr Farshad Hakimpour KMi, The Open University

There is a great deal of work on developing ontologies (such as OWL-S and WSMO) for describing semantics of Web Services. IRS is one of the few existing systems (if not the only one) to support the Semantic Web Services technologies. I will show how the underlying model of IRS (i.e. Task-PSM ontology) could support parts of OWL-S, as well as how we modified and extended the task-PSM ontology to be able to support features of OWL-S. I will also present further capability the Task-PSM ontology provides, in comparison to OWL-S. I will briefly describe the status of the current work for supporting WSMO.

Knowledge Management is...


Knowledge Management
Creating learning organisations hinges on managing knowledge at many levels. Knowledge can be provided by individuals or it can be created as a collective effort of a group working together towards a common goal, it can be situated as "war stories" or it can be generalised as guidelines, it can be described informally as comments in a natural language, pictures and technical drawings or it can be formalised as mathematical formulae and rules, it can be expressed explicitly or it can be tacit, embedded in the work product. The recipient of knowledge - the learner - can be an individual or a work group, professionals, university students, schoolchildren or informal communities of interest.
Our aim is to capture, analyse and organise knowledge, regardless of its origin and form and make it available to the learner when needed presented with the necessary context and in a form supporting the learning processes.
