Web-Scale Information Integration
Abstract
The Web-Scale Information Integration program will create technologies to automatically integrate distributed information bases for broad strategic and tactical battlespace awareness, including technologies to automate the integration of multiple media (text, video, and digital photographs) as well as analyze, index, and store that media, so that it can be easily queried and retrieved by users across the DoD enterprise. A key enabler is the development of advanced document/content/information-object services including indexing, metadata creation, search, versioning, records management, schema alignment, and information visualization. Program interest extends to semantic web technologies whereby the semantics of information and services are made explicit, enabling machines to understand and satisfy the information requests of users (people and machines). This includes the technologies needed to automatically create and maintain, in real-time, encyclopedic knowledge of critical military, scientific, economic and social-cultural information in formats that are both human readable and machine processable. Such encyclopedic knowledge of the world will provide fundamental context to counter-insurgency, global strike and (near-) peer conflict including strategy, rules of engagement, planning and execution, while semantically-enabled search and processing will automate information discovery and manipulation to enable better decision-making for warfighters.
