ebXML: Semantics in eHealth by Professor Dr. Asuman Dogac (Middle East Technical University (METU) in Turkey ) on 03/02/2006

* Subject Ontolog invited Speaker Presentation by Professor Dr. Asuman Dogac, from the Middle East Technical University (METU) in Turkey presents her talk entitled: andquot;Exploiting ebXML Registry Semantics in the eHealth Domainandquot; * Date Thursday, March 2, 2006 * ONTOLOG forum Wiki link http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2006_03_02 * Abstract ebXML registry is capable of storing semantics about the registry objects. This semantics is restricted to classification hierarchies with properties. However it is possible to represent some Web Ontology Language (OWL) constructs in the registry and through stored procedures it is possible to make the registry OWL aware. I will first discuss how to make ebXML registries OWL aware and then through an application in eHealth, I will discuss how this semantics can be exploited.
