General Dissemination Strategy
and Consortium-wide Actions
What Do We Disseminate?
Vision: the Semantic / Knowledge Web
Ontologies as a key technology to achieve this
Results:
OTK info service toolset
Ontology language plus web inference layer
Methodology:
How-to guidelines

Vision: Exploiting the WorldWide Information Resources
IT, and especially Internet/WWW, have boosted
potential for knowledge acquisition and sharing
BUT: information resources are heterogeneous,
distributed, semi-structured, & enormous in size
HENCE: need for KM tools for selective semantic
(meaning-oriented) access => On-To-Knowledge
Move from keyword search to query answering
Move upwards in the data-info-knowledge chain
Vision: towards the next-generation “semantic”
(Tim Berners-Lee, W3C) or knowledge web

The Contribution by
On-To-Knowledge
Knowledge
sharing issue:
hyperlink
browsing and
keyword search
do not tell you
much, and are a
waste of time
Much better: you
OTK toolset:
ask questions to
achieve meaningful
information
semantic
resources, and
just get the
user access
answer
Hans Akkermans
On-To-Knowledge Dissemination
Hyperlink structure
does not really help!

Implementing the Vision:
OTK Toolset and its Use
OTK Tools:
User query
access
Semantic
representation
& analysis
Intranet/WWW
information
extraction

OTK Consortium-wide
Dissemination Actions (1/2)
Spread the word: the semantic / knowledge web
publications,
presentations, demonstrations
e.g. EU eBeW-2000 Conference Madrid and many others
OTK
website (D30) and project brochure (D33)
http://www.ontoknowledge.org
Join forces with like-minded EU projects
OntoWeb
thematic network in preparation
Joint workshop of projects (IBROW, COMMA, AKT,
MKBEEM, C-Web, ENRICH, …) proposed (D31, D32)

OTK Consortium-wide
Dissemination Actions (2/2)
Help to set web semantic standards
Active
participation in W3C working groups on RDF
and semantic web
Links to related programmes in US (DARPA/DAML)
US DAML programme considers to use OTK’s OIL
language as its standard (OIL “shell” model)
Facilitate industry take-up
How-to
guidelines for roll-out (WP5 Methodology)
Focus on “Lightweight” semi-automatic approaches
Company-specific actions at targeted market segments
