A Flexible Framework for Adaptive Knowledge Retrieval and Fusion for Kiosk Systems and Mobile Clients

This approach describes a centralized framework that offers a flexible integration and access to different external knowledge sources via a single query interface. The advantage of this approach is to use the potential of a combination of different services to focus information and knowledge. Different SOAP or REST-based Web services can be requested in parallel and their results are integrated, analyzed and harmonized to one result structure that is sent to the user’s client application. Various knowledge sources, can be integrated in the framework, without the need to know a query language of the Semantic Web like SPARQL. A special point in this approach is the discovery of services and the harmonization of the results of involved services using matching and mapping rules. Keywords–Semantic Web Services; OWL-S; WADL.
