Atom 1.0The mission
The current explosion in the volume and complexity of data produced and consumed by individuals or organization is unparalleled. The development of the Internet, of data and knowledge interchange standards such as XML, RDF, Web Services, OWL, and the recent democratization of access to large-scale distributed computer clouds opens unprecedented opportunities for large-scale data management and reasoning. Our research work aims at exploiting these infrastructures to devise and deploy innovative, efficient, distributed data- and knowledge-rich platforms.
More specifically, our research aims at:
- modeling and organizing data, reasoning, and knowledge through formal techniques;
- exploiting and enriching data meaning to enhance its value and reach the full potential for interoperability;
- devising algorithms and deploying systems to efficiently tackle the complex and growing data needs.
The Leo project started in January 2010. It reunites INRIA researchers and faculty from two teams (BD and IASI) of the LRI (Laboratoire de Recherche en Informatique/UMR 8623, CNRS-University Paris-Sud) lab. It is geographically located in the Parc-Club campus in Orsay, 30 minutes to the South of Paris.
