A data construct called a semcard is a semantic (meaning-based) software object including semantic meta-tags and meta-data that describes a target object or thing. A target object can be any type of digital or physical entity or identifier, or it can be tacit knowledge, such as ideas, concepts, processes or other data existing in a user's mind, provided that the user represents this knowledge in the semcard. A semcard embodies information about its own structure-rules, history, state, policies and goals regarding automation, display, access permissions, sharing and other operations of the semcard and any optional target object. It can also represent a semantic link between two semcards, or a semantically typed link or a standard Web hyperlink between a semcard and its referent target. A collection of semcards represents a knowledge network; single semcards, and knowledge networks, can be browsed, shared, searched, disseminated, manipulated, displayed, organized, and stored.

Semantically representing a target entity using a semantic object

An application that enables users to effectively utilize and manage knowledge and data the user posses and allows other users to effectively and seamlessly benefit from the user's knowledge and data over a computer network is also disclosed. A method of processing content created by a user utilizing a semantic, ontology-driven portal on a computer network is described. The semantic portal application provides the user with a content base, such as a semantic form or meta-form, for creating a semantic posting. The semantic portal utilizes a knowledge data structure, such as a taxonomy or ontology, in preparing a semantic posting based on the information provided by the user via the content base. The semantic portal application prepares a preview of a semantic posting for evaluation by the user. The semantic posting is then either modified by the user or accepted and posted by the user for external parties to view.

A data construct called a semcard is a semantic (meaning-based) software object including semantic meta-tags and meta-data that describes a target object or thing. A target object can be any type of digital or physical entity or identifier, or it can be tacit knowledge, such as ideas, concepts, processes or other data existing in a user's mind, provided that the user represents this knowledge in the semcard. A semcard embodies information about its own structure&#x2014;rules, history, state, policies and goals regarding automation, display, access permissions, sharing and other operations of the semcard and any optional target object. It can also represent a semantic link between two semcards, or a semantically typed link or a standard Web hyperlink between a semcard and its referent target. A collection of semcards represents a knowledge network; single semcards, and knowledge networks, can be browsed, shared, searched, disseminated, manipulated, displayed, organized, and stored.

Among other disclosure, a knowledge network and semcards enabling intelligent matching of offers and requests, involving all types of information and knowledge, including information such as classified ads, data about products and services, or knowledge, expertise, ideas, suggestions, opinions, and other forms of tacit knowledge is described.

Methods and systems for semantically managing offers and requests over a network

The patent describes a single location and application on a network where a user can organize public, group, and private/personal information and have this single, location accessible to the public. A new, ontology-driven portal that organizes all three categories of data according to various 'facets' using underlying ontologies to define each 'facet' and wherein any type of information can be classified and linked to other types of information is disclosed. An application that enables a user to effectively utilize and manage knowledge and data the user posses and allows other users to effectively and seamlessly benefit from the user's knowledge and data over a computer network is also disclosed.

Methods and systems for managing and tracking semantic objects are disclosed herein. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system of, managing a semantic collection. One embodiment can include, receiving a request to create the semantic collection comprising a set of semantic objects, creating a semantic link between the set of semantic objects via updating metadata associated with the set of semantic objects, and identifying a set of rules to be associated with the semantic collection. In one embodiment, the metadata associated with the set of semantic objects is undated based on the set of rules. In a further aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of tracking a semantic object.

Method and system for managing and tracking semantic objects

A method of effectively designing an interactive system is disclosed. The method may preferably include the steps of (1) determining the overall scope of the desired interactive system, including available sources of input and output; (2) creating a list of desired features for the system; (3) creating a rough outline of perceptions, decisions, and actions that the system must be capable of if it is to possess the desired features; (4) designing perception features that implement the identified perception specifications and decision features that implement the decision-making process required by the identified decision specifications; (5) creating any necessary supporting components (e.g., buffers for storing data collected by perception features) to implement the perception and decision features; and (6) creating a behavior feature hierarchy that includes the action features required to implement action features of the interactive system. Each perception feature and decision feature is preferably assigned a priority level which may be a function of several factors. The present method may find particular application in designing an interactive system that implements an anytime algorithm and in designing an interactive system that implements a distributed, asynchronous architecture.
