In a diverse information environment, semantics must be used to clearly indicate the meaning of data. This requirement is expected to be addressed by the Semantic Infrastructure, although there will be a touchpoint between the caGrid 2.0 platform and the Semantic Infrastructure to annotate data with semantics. Data semantics are captured in the Semantic Infrastructure and the platform will leverage the Semantic Infrastructure for reasoning and analysis.

A Rule is a prescribed guide for carrying out activities and processes leading to desired results, e.g. the operational realization of policies. A Regulation is a mandated process or the specific details that derive from the interpretation of Rules and lead to measureable quantities against which compliance can be measured. Policy is made operational through the promulgating and implementing of Rules and Regulations

Information and behavioral models, in conjunction with discovery mechanisms, mediation, classification, traceability from requirement to operation, and interaction logs, enable comprehensive analysis to be performed through-out the life-cycle of artifacts , from design through run-time implementation.

The semantic models managed by the Semantic Infrastructure enable enhanced reasoning.

Two families of rules have been identified by stakeholders. Rules related to workflow and business processes that would be executed by a general purpose rules engine (such as Drools, JESS) and rules specific to semantic reasoning (such as SWRL, SPARQL) that would be used within semantic technologies.
