Semantic services in the VirCA system
István Marcell Fülöp · 2011
In the domain of intelligent collaboration, the application of semantic information is a prospective research field. The collaboration system of the forthcoming generation is expected to consist of semantic services of applications as well as semantic human-machine interpretation. In this paper, a simple example of such a system is introduced. Based on this example system, the operation of semantic collaboration is explained. For this research, the VirCA (Virtual Collaboration Arena) system is taken as a conventional collaboration system, which is extended with the components of the semantic layer. Semantic information is represented in the form of an ontology. In this paper, the VirCA core ontology is introduced as well, which is developed for the semantic layer of the VirCA system.
