Project Goals

• Development of an open-source pluggable distributed infrastructure for real-time incomplete reasoning and search
• Exploitation of techniques and heuristics from areas as diverse as databases, machine learning, cognitive science and Semantic Web
• Applicable to massive heterogeneous information sources (e.g. bio-medical resources)
