Third IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGrid'03) An Ontology for Scientific Information in a Grid Environment: the Earth System Grid Tokyo, Japan May 12-May 15 ISBN: 0-7695-1919-9
In the emerging world of Grid Computing, shared computational, data, other distributed resources are becoming available to enable scientific advancement through collaborative research and collaboratories. This paper describes the increasing role of ontologies in the context of Grid Computing for obtaining, comparing and analyzing data. We present ontology entities and a declarative model that provide the outline for an ontology of scientific information. Relationships between concepts are also given. The implementation of some concepts described in this ontology is discussed within the context of the Earth System Grid II (ESG)[1].
