Scientific Lenses over Linked Data: An Approach to Support Task Specific Views of the Data. A Vision

Within complex scientic domains such as pharmacology, op- erational equivalence between two concepts is often context-, user- and task-specic. Existing Linked Data integration procedures and equiva- lence services do not take the context and task of the user into account. We present a vision for enabling users to control the notion of opera- tional equivalence by applying scientic lenses over Linked Data. The scientic lenses vary the links that are activated between the datasets which aects the data returned to the user.
