Challenge 2: FRINK
FabRic Integrating Networked Knowledge
Proto-OKN theme 2
Projects in this category are dedicated to developing and deploying essential technologies that will form an ‘interconnecting fabric’ for the Proto-OKN. This fabric will help link the knowledge graphs developed across the fifteen Theme 1 projects.
Challenge Question
FICTIVE CHALLENGE, EXAMPLE:
How can we prototype a functioning model of FRINK in a way that prevents all the Proto-OKN projects from overlapping?
Description
FICTIVE CHALLENGE, EXAMPLE:
FRINK will be organized around three objectives, detailing three types of fabric that will bind together the initially disparate graphs developed by Theme 1 teams:
(1) Knowledge Fabric: Tools for knowledge graph integration and interoperability. In order to connect together two graphs that may not overlap on their respective content, an innovative strategy is employed using Wikidata as a knowledge backbone through which diverse graphs could be linked, cross-queried and analyzed.
(2) Technical Fabric: Common knowledge graph deployment strategies and technology based on robust, scalable, cloud-based technical infrastructure and best-practice cloud engineering, A set of query and analytic tools will be deployed for efficiently tapping into a federated knowledge system.
(3) Social Fabric: Engagement with Themes 1 and 3 projects to create a common vision, standard semantics, and shared protocol for OKN, along with the enthusiasm to work together to create a unified product with shared values addressing highly diverse use cases.
