Context as a Foundation for a Semantic Desktop

چکیده
Adoption of semantic web technologies and principles presents an opportunity to change the conceptual model of desktop computing. Moving from a traditional position where the desktop is largely tied to a specific computational device, a semantic desktop could exist as a broad, networked space defined relative to the user. In this position paper we argue that personal, computing, and knowledge contexts are the appropriate means by which to define and shape the desktop space, and that collectively they provide the foundation for novel functionality in a semantic desktop.

متن کاملThe Sile Model - A Semantic File System Infrastructure for the Desktop
With the increasing storage capacity of personal computing devices, the problems of information overload and information fragmentation become apparent on users’ desktops. For the Web, semantic technologies aim at solving this problem by adding a machine-interpretable information layer on top of existing resources, and it has been shown that the application of these technologies to desktop envir...
متن کاملSemantic Desktop Systems for Context Awareness – Requirements and Architectural Implications
Semantic Desktop systems appear to be a promising infrastructure for context-aware applications that acquire and make use of user context information in order to provide more efficient interaction between the user and the system. In a systematic analysis, we have analyzed existing Semantic Desktop systems based on a collection of requirements and deduced from it architectural implications for f...
متن کاملA Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents
Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....
متن کاملOverview and Outlook on the Semantic Desktop
In this paper we will give an overview of the Semantic Desktop paradigm, beginning with the history of the term, a definition, current work and its relevance to knowledge management of the future. Existing applications and research results are listed and their role as building blocks of the future Semantic Desktop described. Based on the analysis of existing systems we propose two software arch...
