Semantic Interoperability of C2 Tools and Technologies

Securboration, teaming with DMM Ventures, is pleased to propose C2 Ontology-based Semantic Interoperability Framework (C2OSIF). Securboration’s technical approach to C2OSIF is focused on leveraging our extensive semantic web expertise along with our COI research and applying it to the practical implementation of C2 application interoperability to meet the information goals set forth in NCDS. NCDS goals include making data visible, accessible, understandable, trusted, and interoperable. C2OSIF supports these goals by innovatively applying semantic web technology and COI concepts to account for both data interoperability and application interoperability. C2OSIF will accomplish semantic interoperability by providing the ability for creating C2 COIs as the mechanism to support users across the Enterprise. C2OSIF leverages the concept of COIs for focusing context and couples this with proven semantic integration techniques to integrate data and application information within the COI. Semantic definitions and descriptions are organized into groups of COIs to create requirements reflecting the needs of the COI members (e.g. Strategy, Planning, Assessment, Operations, etc.). These semantic requirements describe things such as types of data they are interested in, the frequency of the data needed, format of the data (viewing and processing), and constraints or conditions under which the data or processing is needed.
