(PhysOrg.com) -- European researchers have created new tools for semantic technology development which are helping to set the next generation of official standards. The tools also unblock some key bottlenecks in semantic technology. http://www.physorg.com/news178529295.html Technology Fri, 27 Nov 2009 07:28:55 EST news178529295 (PhysOrg.com) -- Web scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will use the World Wide Web to compile and share scientific data on an unprecedented scale. Their goal is to hasten scientific discovery and innovation by enabling rapid and easy collaboration between scientists, educators, students, policy makers, and even "citizen scientists" around the world via the Web. http://www.physorg.com/news173630296.html Technology Thu, 01 Oct 2009 17:40:07 EST news173630296 (PhysOrg.com) -- On May 21, the day the White House unveiled its Open Government Initiative, it also launched the website data.gov, which put information like Medicare cost reports, residential energy consumption and state-by-state toxicity reports online. Finding new technical means to make data accessible is central to the Obama administration's plans for increasing government transparency, and as those plans unfold, the administration will have growing support from the World Wide Web Consortium's eGovernment interest group. http://www.physorg.com/news173004532.html Technology Thu, 24 Sep 2009 10:00:01 EST news173004532 (PhysOrg.com) -- What the World Wide Web is to humans, the Triple Space could become for machines, say European researchers who have helped lay the foundations for this innovative integration of web services, semantic web and tuple space technologies. http://www.physorg.com/news172912802.html Technology Wed, 23 Sep 2009 08:30:01 EST news172912802 (PhysOrg.com) -- New semantics-based software tools that accelerate the speed companies can develop or adjust their processes - while slashing costs - have resulted from a major European research project. http://www.physorg.com/news168867481.html Technology Fri, 07 Aug 2009 12:50:02 EST news168867481 Processing patents is complex and time-consuming. Using semantic web technology, researchers have come up with a powerful tool to process patents faster and better. http://www.physorg.com/news158505577.html Technology Thu, 09 Apr 2009 14:20:40 EST news158505577 (PhysOrg.com) -- Portals used to launch you, Stargate-style, to bizarre places brought to life by science fiction writers. Today, thanks to European research, portals can take you to fascinating virtual destinations - both ancient and new - and all just a click away. http://www.physorg.com/news156698088.html Technology Thu, 19 Mar 2009 16:15:38 EST news156698088 (PhysOrg.com) -- A new search engine described as an "electronic brain" could make searching the Internet more intelligent. Called Wolfram Alpha, the search engine computes its own answers rather than looking them up in a large database, as Google and many other search engines currently do. With its computational abilities, Wolfram Alpha could lead to new types of questions, answers and computations that today's search engines can't handle. http://www.physorg.com/news155826981.html Technology Mon, 09 Mar 2009 14:16:55 EST news155826981 (PhysOrg.com) -- Dispersed wind farms and solar panels on people`s homes are posing new challenges for managing power grids that were designed when all electricity was generated in centralised plants. A new semantic web technology promises a solution. http://www.physorg.com/news153407687.html Technology Mon, 09 Feb 2009 13:16:42 EST news153407687 (PhysOrg.com) -- Almost everyone who has used a major internet search engine has had the same experience: Search for "Dodge convertible" and 0.16 seconds later you have 4.3 million links to web pages on dodge ball, Dodge City and convertible debt instruments. http://www.physorg.com/news152984304.html Technology Wed, 04 Feb 2009 15:39:07 EST news152984304 (PhysOrg.com) -- European researchers have developed innovative software to make finding information on your computer and sharing it with others considerably easier. In the process, they may have solved the chicken and egg problem that has held back development of the semantic web. http://www.physorg.com/news146843260.html Technology Tue, 25 Nov 2008 13:47:40 EST news146843260 (PhysOrg.com) -- Where would we be without the web? It is such an immense and rich source of information; we feel that every answer is out there. All it takes is a bit of searching... http://www.physorg.com/news135434410.html Technology Wed, 16 Jul 2008 13:40:10 EST news135434410
