GRISINO : a Semantic Web service, grid computing and intelligent objects integrated infrastructure

Existing information, knowledge and content infrastructures are currently facing challenging problems in terms of scalability, management and integration of various content and services. The latest technology trends, including Semantic Web Services, Grid computing and Intelligent Content Objects provide the technological means to address parts of the previously mentioned problems. A combination of the three technologies could provide a sound technological foundation to build scalable infrastructures that provide highly automated support in fulfilling user's goals. This paper introduces GRISINO, an integrated infrastructure for Semantic Web Services, Intelligent Content Objects and Grid computing, which may serve as a foundation for next generation distributed applications. -- Semantic Web Services ; Grid Computing ; Intelligent Content Objects ; Semantic Web
