| One of the greatest challenges we now face in Grid
Computing regards the ability to explicitly share and deploy knowledge
to be used for the development of innovative Grid infrastructure,
and for Grid applications – the Semantic Grid. To address
this challenge the OntoGrid project will produce the technological
infrastructure for the rapid prototyping and development of
knowledge-intensive distributed open services for the Semantic Grid.
Designing Grid applications that make use of a Semantic Grid requires
a new and sound methodology which OntoGrid will develop.
The results are aimed at developing grid systems that optimize cross-process,
cross-company and cross-industry collaboration, which OntoGrid will
show by adopting a use case-guided development and evaluation
strategy based on two test case applications of differing, yet stereotypical,
Grid characterisation. A principle of OntoGrid is to adopt and influence
standards in Semantic Grid and Grid Computing, in particular
the Open Grid Service Architecture.
