At the beginning of 2004, several projects were funded under the
"Semantic-Based
Knowledge Systems" Action Line, as part of the European Union's
Sixth Framework (FP6).
Whilst
many of these project have a clear focus on Semantic Web research,
Agent-based
technology plays a key role as an enabling technology for the Semantic
Web, as
well as an important consumer of much of the content that will be
annotated and
deployed on the Semantic Web. To facilitate and increase shared
awareness,
AgentLink is collaborating with
five other
Networks of Excellence under this Action Line so as to promote high
quality,
agent-based technology within the Semantic Web Community, and to raise
greater
understanding within the Agent community of one of the more significant
technologies
to emerge in the new millennia.
Summaries of each of the projects appeared in past issues of the
AgentLink
NEWS newsletter,
published three times a year; the collection of summaries is also
available for download.
