W3C has published three HCLS related Intrerest Group Notes

Posted on October 23, 2009 by Ivan Herman

The W3C Semantic Web in Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group (HCLS) is pleased to announce the publishing of three Interest Group notes by the Scientific Discourse Task Force:

These notes describe how one can use the Semantic Web to express and integrate scientific data from different domains and from heterogeneous services. It is hoped that they will inspire further contributions to the ongoing work of the Health Care and Life Sciences Interest Group and its Scientific Discourse Task Force, as well as inspire those in other domains to exploit the Semantic Web.
