Semantic interoperability
- Universal access means access to everyone,
overcoming differences in culture, language, education, ability,
material resources, and physical limitations of users on all
continents
- Consider "cultural barriers"
- A message is:
- Content: the true content of the message, the
originator wants to communicate;
- Structure: the way the information is organized
(e.g. title, author, body, signature)
- Presentation: the way the information is presented
to the user (fonts, colours, page layout, etc.)
- Semantic interoperability is a must
- W3C technologies are supporting our needs
