FZI Contribution to DIP
• FZI would like
• to contribute to Discovery & Integration, combined with the necessary description aspects
• Discovery: Infrastructure that allows searching for distributed and centralized services using Semantic Web technologies
• Integration: includes mediation between services and legacy systems and mediation between heterogeneous services
• to further improve methods and tools for
• Ontology management, e.g. evolution, views
• is interested in participating in real-world case studies (applied research)
