*******CALL FOR PARTICIPATION AND ACCEPTED PAPERS*******
1st Workshop on
Semantics in Peer-to-Peer and Grid Computing
at the
Twelfth International World Wide Web Conference
20 May 2003, Budapest, Hungary
in cooperation with the
GGF Semantic Grid Research Group (SEM-GRD)
Workshop URL: http://www.isi.edu/~stefan/SemPGRID
Registration at: http://www.www2003.org/registration.html
Topics and Content
-----------------------------------
The Semantic Web is widely accepted as a means to enhance the Web
with machine processable content. However, mostly the Semantic Web
is aiming at techniques and technologies for static information,
in contrast to dynamic services or distributed computing. Several
interest groups and efforts are working on infrastructure for
enabling distributed computing. The organization of these efforts
are in part top down organized efforts, involving multiple formal
organizations and dedicated projects, and bottom-up efforts,
sometimes started by single organizations or individuals in a
grassroots effort.
The Grid is aiming at technologies which allow the flexible,
secure, coordinated resource sharing among dynamic collections of
individuals, institutions, and resources, enabling virtual
organizations. Problems encountered include authentication,
authorization, resource access, resource discovery, and
interoperation of active services. The same problems are eminent
in the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) area, where projects are typically
organized in a bottom-up fashion. Reusable infrastructures like
SUN's JXTA are emerging, attracting numerous applications.
However, each application uses its own data format, and it is hard
to see how applications interoperate.
A related area is Web Services: driven by industry efforts
numerous specifications are developed, which are of interest for
the Grid projects as well as for the Peer-to-Peer efforts.
Although there is an agreement that Web Services would benefit
from more semantics, little systematic research has been done on
the problem of how to combine the notions of Web Services with the
results of the Semantic Web, Peer-to-Peer and Grid computing.
The workshop will be organized around talks presenting
research results in the intersection of the Semantic Web, P2P and
Grid computing and discussions.
