An important public symposium in the Semantic Web field was held last week in Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (NY, US), as part of the launch of a new research institute for Web Science, entitled Tetherless World Research Constellation. A number of leading figures such as Nova Spivack and Nigel Shadbolt were present, among those Tim Berners-Lee. The principal focus of Berners-Lee’s keynote speech was his future vision of the Web, for which he discussed a number of distinct aspects. Berners-Lee has never faltered to advocate his future Web vision as a semantic and social one. The formal scientific analysis of such outlooks has emerged as the field of Web Science, to which the new research centre is dedicated. The characteristics of the evolving Web which Berners-Lee outlined could be divided into various areas. One of the topics, which was also one of the general themes of the day, was the construction of more intelligent data, as opposed to smarter software. This is one of the objectives of the Semantic Web, which was introduced by Berners-Lee, however, adding that the conceptual links between data have the power to be used in unpredictable and novel ways. It has not yet emerged what the outcome of such opportunities will be, but the evolution of the Web is likely to have an impact on the traditional methods of constructing social systems. This was another one of the topics elaborated by Berners-Lee and other attendees... [http://www.ibiscluster.org/index.php/tag/tetherless-world-research-constellation/ Complete Story]
