Creating Intelligent Computational Edge through Semantic Mediation

Abstract

This research proposes semantic mediation based on reasoning and the first order logic for mediating the best possible configuration of Computational Edge, relevant for software applications which may benefit for running computations with proximity to their data sources. The mediation considers the context in which these applications exist and exploits the semantic of that context for decision making on where computational elements should reside and which data they should use. The application of semantic mediation could address the initiative to accommodate algorithms from predictive and learning technologies, push AI towards computational edges and potentially contribute towards creating a computing continuum.
