Semantic Web for the Military User May 7-8, 2003 Preparing the Military for the Revolution of the Semantic Web Preparing the Military for the Revolution of the Semantic Web Murray Burke DAML Program Manager (703) ,

Semantic Web - Outline What’s it all about?  What are the DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) and Ontology Web Language (OWL)?  Theme for this meeting: Preparing the Military for the Revolution of the Semantic Web  Some Selected Examples of Semantic Web adoptions in the Military  What you will see in the next couple days

DAML and OWL The DARPA Agent Markup Language (DAML) Program  Enabling “agent” communication at a Web- wide scale  Semantic language that ties information on a page to machine readable semantics ( ontology ) W3C, including Tim Berners- Lee: Enthusiastic Partners  About to release Ontology Web Language (OWL)  Based on DAML-OIL (Ontology Inference Layer), International Partnership Get Weather Info Determine Force Mix Provide Intelligence Update Coordinate Transportation Select Targets Order Supplies

DAML Concept C2I is Moving to Web Technology Current Web Technology Not Machine Processable Need the Semantic Web - Machine readability with very rich semantics to support agents for:  Intelligence Analysis and Production  Military Planning and Operations  Software C4ISR Agents  Sensor Fusion DAML is building the language and tools to realize the bold vision of the Semantic Web  Language to describe information  Tools for users and developers  Transition activities  Experimentation/Metrics What is Al Qaeda? q Membership q Locations q Structure q Finances q Tactics q Other terrorist organizations A terrorist organization Would you like additional information on? 39,800 Matches on 6 March 2002 What is Al Qaeda?
