[sem-grd] OECD meeting and the Semantic Grid - views sought

[Carole Goble]

Semantic Grid friends


There will be an OECD meeting on Grids in order to advise government 
policy. The meeting is 25-27 Sept in Australia

I have been asked to lead a discussion on Semantic Grids, present an 
informational talk on semantic Grids, and address these points:

What are the main challenges and impediments to knowledge-manipulation 
and reasoning on the Grid?
How can governments help?

To allow users to voluntarily adhere to conventions in providing 
necessary information to enable knowledge manipulation and reasoning 
and/or to adopt policy means? 

Are there significant privacy or intellectual property issues?


Any views or comments from you all will be appreciated and directly 
channelled to government policy discussion

Comments by Wed 21st would be appeciated


Carole
