Data Technology in Materials Modelling SPRINGER BRIEFS IN APPLIED SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGY Martin Thomas Horsch Silvia Chiacchiera Welchy Leite Cavalcanti Björn Schembera Data Technology in Materials Modelling SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology SpringerBriefs present concise summaries of cutting-edge research and practical applications across a wide spectrum of fields. Featuring compact volumes of 50 to 125 pages, the series covers a range of content from professional to academic. Typical publications can be: • A timely report of state-of-the art methods • An introduction to or a manual for the application of mathematical or computer techniques • A bridge between new research results, as published in journal articles • A snapshot of a hot or emerging topic • An in-depth case study • A presentation of core concepts that students must understand in order to make independent contributions SpringerBriefs are characterized by fast, global electronic dissemination, standard publishing contracts, standardized manuscript preparation and formatting guidelines, and expedited production schedules. On the one hand, SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology are devoted to the publication of fundamentals and applications within the different classical engineering disciplines as well as in interdisciplinary fields that recently emerged between these areas. On the other hand, as the boundary separating fundamental research and applied technology is more and more dissolving, this series is particularly open to trans-disciplinary topics between fundamental science and engineering. Indexed by EI-Compendex, SCOPUS and Springerlink.

This work targets applications in the engineering sciences as well as industrial research and development in chemical and mechanical process technology. Digitalization in these fields is sig- nificantly advanced by public funding, notably through EU’s Horizon 2020 and (prospectively) Horizon Europe programmes, the DFG programme for National Research Data Infrastructures (NFDI) and BMBF programmes including Material Digital, among many others. The viability and uptake of metadata standards and digital platforms depend strongly on an exchange of ideas between development efforts. In our field, com- munity organizations such as the Research Data Alliance, the European Materials Modelling Council and CECAM (Centre Européen de Calcul Atomique et Moléculaire) support this exchange through a multitude of events, white papers, and coordinated activities and task groups. It is our hope that all these endeavours will collaborate as closely as possible and jointly be successful at making FAIR data management ubiquitous in materials modelling. This work is intended as an input to this collaboration that is necessary, in our view. It is therefore intentionally pub- lished at a stage long before these developments can be regarded as finished, and we would like to encourage its readers to take this as an opportunity to engage in criticism and formulate recommendations for future work.

Supervisor, Dr. B. H. Far Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Dr. M. Moussavi Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Dr. D. Krishnamurthy Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Dr. Y. Hu Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Dr. M. Ghaderi Department of Computer Science Date ii Abstract Currently, the mainstream of semantic search is based on both centralized networking that could be barrier to access trillions of dynamically generated bytes on individual websites, and group commitment to a common ontology that is often too strong or unrealistic. In real world, it is preferred to enable stakeholders of knowledge to exchange information freely while they keep their own individual ontology. While this assumption makes stakeholders represent their knowledge more independently and gives them more flexibility, it brings complexity to the communication among them. To solve this communication complexity, in this thesis, we present (1) a method for semantic search supported by ontological concept learning, and (2) a prototype multi-agent system that can handle semantic search and encapsulate the complexity of such process from the users.

  • Deep Semantics in the Geosciences: Semantic Building Blocks for a Complete Geoscience Infrastructure
    Deep Semantics in the Geosciences: semantic building blocks for a complete geoscience infrastructure Brandon Whitehead,1,2 Mark Gahegan1 1Centre for eResearch 2 Institute of Earth Science and Engineering The University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand {b.whitehead, m.gahegan}@auckland.ac.nz Abstract. In the geosciences, the semantic models, or ontologies, available are typically narrowly focused structures fit for single purpose use. In this paper we discuss why this might be, with the conclusion that it is not sufficient to use semantics simply to provide categorical labels for instances—because of the interpretive and uncertain nature of geoscience, researchers need to understand how a conclusion has been reached in order to have any confidence in adopting it. Thus ontologies must address the epistemological questions of how (and possibly why) something is ‘known’. We provide a longer justification for this argument, make a case for capturing and representing these deep semantics, provide examples in specific geoscience domains and briefly touch on a visualisation program called Alfred that we have developed to allow researchers to explore the different facets of ontology that can support them applying value judgements to the interpretation of geological entities. Keywords: geoscience, deep semantics, ontology-based information retrieval 1 Introduction From deep drilling programs and large-scale seismic surveys to satellite imagery and field excursions, geoscience observations have traditionally been expensive to capture. As such, many disciplines related to the geosciences have relied heavily on inferential methods, probability, and—most importantly—individual experience to help construct a continuous (or, more complete) description of what lies between two data values [1].

RDF is a standard for creating should be developed to describe and advertise Web services. The descriptions of information, especially information available most notable approaches rely on the description of Web services on the World Wide Web.

This chapter is about the key novelties of the Semantic Web – the novel ideas, and the novel opportunities. But we will discuss these digital novelties in the context of the Semantic Web’s continuities with other features of the information world. Our most obvious antecedent is not that old – the (non-semantic) Web didn’t exist before the 90s – and we will learn about the very close technical overlap between the Semantic Web and the ‘textual Web’ of our now-usual experience.
