STASIS: The Road to Semantic Interoperability Matt Hinds (matt. hinds@sunderland. ac. uk) A project co-funded by the Project Partners and the European Commission
Introduction • Background • The STASIS Project • Technical Information • Deliverables STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Background • Global economy • Electronic trading increasing in popularity • Language differences a limiting factor • Semantics can solve the problem • Complicated and costly to implement STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Using Semantics Large Companies – Financially viable – Internal resources available – Use available standards • Small/Medium Enterprises (SMEs) – Limited budget – Limited expertise – Limited resources STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
The Problem “If I have information in my format, and it is integrated into my systems, I want to put minimal effort into mapping this into any format (standardised or not) to do electronic business with another party. ” STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Solution • STASIS (Sof. Tware for Ambient Semantic Interoperable Services) – Aims to allow SME and corporate participation in the e. Economy – Addresses semantic gap in integration – Provides services and applications – Industrial partners involved during requirements analysis, testing and validation STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Project Information • € 4 m, EU Funded project (6 th Framework) • 13 Partners across EU and China – Commercial; Universities; User Organisations • Links to standardisation and interoperability organisations – CEN/e. BES; CEN/e. BIF; UN/CEFACT STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Partners • Commercial Companies – TIE, Porthus and i. Soft • Universities – Sunderland, Oldenburg and Modena e Reggio Emilia, Tsinghua • User Organisations – AIDIMA, Mariner, Shanghai Sunline, Foton, TANET, ZF Friedrichshafen AG STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Technical Information A project co-funded by the Project Partners and the European Commission
Component • Component based architecture – STASIS – STASIS Beacon Flock Semantic Analysis Tool Comparator Viewer Distributed Information Purifier STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
STASIS Beacon • Core system service • Holds semantically tagged data • Registry and repository • Created using other applications • Deployed anywhere – Private Organisation – Sectoral association – International community organisations STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
STASIS Flock • Made of STASIS Beacons • Beacons operate in federated manner – Allows semantic information to be retrieved anywhere • Based on the open SEEM registry and repository network STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
STASIS Semantic Analysis Tool • Used to insert specifications • Analyses user specifications based on user, sector and global knowledge • Information placed in Flock is available to all users STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
STASIS Comparator • Allows researching organisation to determine semantic possibilities • Largely automated, but allows user intervention • Information fed back into Flock STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
STASIS Viewer • Allows any party to view semantic information – Useful when establishing new content flows STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
STASIS Distributed Information Purifier • Possibility of conflicting information • Wrong compromises may be made • Distributed Information Purifier cleanses data – Removes incorrect relationships STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
Deliverables • End of project: – Specifications/techniques publicly available – Software released with open interfaces and solutions STASIS Contact: info@stasis-project. net Web: www. stasis-project. net
