  3. Outline • Justify the title • Exa-links? • Conjecture • Future of Science lies in interdisciplinary work • How scientists communicate • Models and Web of Semantics • Hypothesis • A little bit of semantics goes a long way • C.f. Web service composition (and its challenges) • Outrageous claim • E-science fails without semantics • What’s next?

  4. Solved! Google™ on the WWW ExaLinks • Paths through graphs grow exponentially • Computer scientists have been cursing this for years • Even if P=NP • Imagine a graph of >4e10 nodes • All possible paths an unbelievably large number • O(2^4e10) • Paths of length 4 • Avg links 1/10e7 x links = • 1.2e22 Web Graph?

  5. The new challenge • As we increase the number of processors, the types of data, and the kinds of services • The graph of possibilities grows exponentially • The paths through this graph grows exponentially

  6. (US) Grid computing emphases • Tera-flops • Despite Moore we are compute bound • These problems are HARD • Peta-bytes • We can collect more than we can process • These problems are BIG Japanese Supercomputer Something w/much data NSF Cyberinfrastructure report focuses on moving lots of data toever larger computers

  7. Semantic “Depth” and Complexity “C” represents explicit common formats and assumptions required for effective interoperability between different domains Explicit Semantics - used for interoperability across domains “A” “Deepest” semantics required when no shared domain “C” “B” Implicit Semantics - within a given domain Each circle represents semantics of a service/source and the overlap is the common semantics/terms. “Overlap factor” is C A+B+C Examples - hard-coded routine has high implicit semantics; highly negotiated, annotated composible service has high explicit semantics, etc

  8. Analytic Models of Information Fluidity 100 Ontologies 100 Systems/Ontology “Fluidity” is the largest number of fully interoperable systems over the total number of systems. Ontology mappings occur with probability proportional to the number of systems using an ontology. Based on recent random graph theory (Chung and Lu). Quantifiable, measurable in real systems. 10-100 Ontologies 100 Systems/Ontology Jiang, Cybenko, Hendler.

  9. Analytic Models of Deep Semantics and Markup Complexity t=0.5, levels=1 Within subdomains, there is much overlap “C” Across subdomains, the need for deep semantics to achieve interoperability is much lower t=0.5, levels=2 Markup complexity is measured by the amount of unique markup required. Wmax and zmax are parameters capturing intra and inter domain semantics. Plots of reduction in complexity vs zmax and wmax
