This page is a gateway into the requirements gathering process for the next generation semantic infrastructure for caBIG®. The semantics computing capabilities to support interoperability in an SOA demand enhancements and new infrastructure to support the vision described below. This page contains links to the related documents and projects tied to development of new capbilities.

Vocabulary Knowledge Center Semantics Requirements Forum (VKC)

The community was asked to tell us what their requirements are for the next generation infrastructure and the VKC Semantics Requirement Forum was created for this purpose. Please feel free to visit the site and comment or contirbute additional ideas.

Background

The Semantic Infrastructure and Operations Group is responsible for the semantic aspects of the CORE Program Area, the caBIG® Vocabulary and Common Data Elements Workspace, and certain aspects of the caBIG Architecture Workspace, and caGrid®.

...

  • Content Management - the processes and procedures that ensure the breadth and quality of the metadata and terminology used to record the semantics of data meet the needs of the caBIG® community.
  • Semantics Infrastructure - design and development of  software resources and operations including producing reference implementations of platform independent models
  • Semantics Architecture and Management - defining the platform independent (as also called "implementation Independent") specification for systems and processes required to meet the semantics needs of the CBIIT/caBIG enterprise, and for assuring that operational requirements for semantics support are met in a ina timely and reliable way.

Our vision is to provide computational and human interpretable representation of the meaning and context of data and services. Realization of this goal is a vital to enable the caBIG® community to revolutionize biomedical research, personalized medicine, and integrated care.  To achieve this vision, the semantic infrastructure must:

2) the approach supports data discovery and interchange, but not services interoperability
