The Principles of Building Personal Data Integrators Using OSTIS Technology

Abstract

This paper describes principles of building personal data integrators using OSTIS technology. The main goal of creating such kind of systems is adaptation of heterogeneous services and transforming them into one personal information space. Personal data integrator is designed to become a one-way interface to the digital world, that will make an attempt to make this interaction easier and more efficient, allowing to solve user’s specific tasks based on his specific context. Goal of the paper is to make design of personal integrator system that would understand the semantics of user personal data, understand how to interact with each specific user web service and be able to extend their functionality by creating intelligent agents. It is designed using the ontological principles and OSTIS technology. Personal data integrator is designed to be connected with several web-services to harvest the available user data and transform it into a powerful fragments of knowledge-base, integrated on semantic layer, that can be easily used by intelligent agents of the system.
