“Let’s share tags.”
n
What would we actually share?
n n n
stuff that only people can read, one by one data that makesfor pretty graphs and clouds information that has value when shared increase the population of contributors create cross-links and multiple perspectives enable new computational riffs
n
How dowe create value by sharing?
n n n
Levels of agreement on technical infrastructure -> value enabled
n n n
Formats: Data can be accessed Schema: Data can be queried and stored Ontology: Datacan be interpreted, aggregated, composed Application/service: Data and functionality can be shared (requires a monopoly)
n
Semantic agreement enables constructive composition
compositionnoise?
Example: formal match, semantic mismatch
n n n
System A says a tag is a property of a document. System B says a tag is an assertion by an individual with an identity. Does it meananything to combine the tag data from these two systems?

“Precision without accuracy” “Statistical fantasy”
Semantic agreement enables useful composition
n
Systems A, B, C, & D agree that atagging is an assertion tagged(term,item,agent)
n
they also must agree on details such as how to determine equality of terms, items, and agents
n n n n
System B, C, & D agree, in addition,that the assertions include polarity (+ or -) All systems can count up tags on an item Systems B & C can merge voting data System D (anti-spam) knows more about agents. It can riff on B’s and C’s datato give some agents more weight, and it can make inferences about agent validity.
Ontology is a mechanism for making semantic agreement
n n
Independent of data model, format, application Can bestated in many equivalent forms
n n
Languages like OWL Semantic Web has tools for translation, validation, and serialization into XML formats only hard requirement is logical consistency
