José Júlio Alferes, Wolfgang May:
Evolution and Reactivity for the Web.
Abstract
The Web and the Semantic Web, as we see it, can be understood
as a .living organism. combining autonomously evolving data sources, each
of them possibly reacting to events it perceives. Rather than a Web of
data sources, we envisage a Web of Information Systems, where each such
system, besides being capable of gathering information (querying
persistent data, as well as .listening. to volatile data such as occurring
events), is capable of updating persistent data, communicating the
changes, requesting changes of persistent data in other systems, and being
able to react to requests from other systems. The dynamic character of
such a Web requires declarative languages and mechanisms for specifying
the evolution of the data.
In this course we will talk about foundations of evolution and reactive
languages in general, and will then concentrate on some specific issues
posed by evolution and reactivity in the Web and in the Semantic Web.
