Industrial Use of Semantics: NNEC Semantic Interoperability
Abstract
The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) is shifting towards Net-centric operations paradigms driven by the nature of the new missions that the Alliance will likely be facing in the coming years. This new situation has forced the Alliance to pursue the achievement of the so-called NATO Network-Enabled Capability (NNEC). In this framework, the concept of a system of systems should give way to the new paradigm of federation of services, where any capability needs to be seen as a loosely-couple service. From the perspective of any of these services, one of the biggest issues will be to discover available services and, more importantly, the information provided for such services can be consumed. For this purpose, we present in this chapter the use of Semantic Web as a technology that will facilitate the explicit description of the services available on the Net that will eventually help in selecting the right services. The technology will also mediate between service consumers and service providers, so information is given a well-defined meaning and is comprehensible. Based on the foundations of the Semantic Web, we propose a concept demonstrator called SISearch, where well defined vocabularies from apparently different domains are defined by using ontology languages. Then, these different vocabularies are interpreted with respect to the vocabulary defined by a potential service consumer. Assisted by this interpretation and by inference services, the SISearch will translate both consumer-based queries to service provider specific-queries (using different vocabularies), and aggregating and interpreting the results with respect to the service consumer vocabulary. This approach will allow extending to new potential service consumer or service providers without having to develop specific modules or components.
