REWERSE: Reasoning on the Web
Funding: EU FP6 - Network of Excellence
Reference: 506779
Duration: 2004-2008.
Partners: TU Munich, Univ. Nova Lisboa and 25 other partners form 14 Eupropean countries - cf. http://rewerse.net)
Role: Responsible for UNL in Bioinformatics Work Package (A2)
Objectives:
The objective of REWERSE is to establish Europe as a leader in reasoning languages for the Web by networking and structuring a scientific community that needs it, and by providing tangible technological bases that do not exist today for an industrial software development of advanced Web systems and applications. Research is organised in five research task for the definition and development of techniques for reasoning on the Semantic Web (I1: Rule Markup Languages, I2: Policy Specification, Composition, and Conformance, I3: Composition and Typing, I4: Reasoning- Aware Querying and I5: Evolution and Reactivity) and 3 of these technical tasks for applying these techniques specialised fields (A1: Web-based Decision Support for Event, Temporal, and Geographical Data, A2: Towards a Bioinformatics Semantic Web, and A3: Personalised Information Systems).

CLCS: Computational Logic as a Foundation for Computer Science and Intelligent Systems.
Funding: EU - Human Resources Development ("Asia-Link HRD")
Reference: VN 001
Duration: 2004-2007.
Partners: Technical University Dresden, Universidade Nova Lisboa, HUT (Technical University Hanoi, Vietname) and University of Indonesia (UI - Jacarta, Indonesia).
Role: Lecturer
Objectives:
The overall objectives is to promote the area of formal computational foundations of logic, computer science and intelligent systems, i.e., the area of Computational Logic, in South East Asia. The European partners - Technische Universität Dresden (TUD) and Universidade Nova de Lisboa (UNL) - are already engaged in an effort to turn Europe into the leading place for education and training in this area. The three-year project aims at upgrading the staff of the Asian partners - Hanoi University of Technology (HUT) and University of Indonesia at Jakarta (UI) - within a joint team schema, joint supervision of master and PhD-students within a sandwich schema, courses of European professors and lectures at the Asian universities, the organisation of International Summer Schools, the development of curricula for single modules at the Asian universities, and the incorporation of video-teaching methods in cooperation and teaching.
