The Semantic Web is the extension of the World Wide Web that enables people to share content beyond the boundaries of applications and websites.
We propose a semi-automated method for redeploying bioinformatic databases indexed in a Web portal as a decentralized, semantically integrated and service-oriented Data Grid. We generate peer-to-peer schema mappings leveraging on cross-referenced instances and instance-based schema matching algorithms.
From Bioinformatic Web Portals to Semantically Integrated Data G

In the past, the problem of semantic interoperability in information systems was mostly solved by means of centralization, both at a system and at a logical level. This approach has been successful to a certain extent, but offers limited scalability and flexibility. Peer-to-Peer systems as a new brand of system architectures indicate that the principles of decentralization and self-organization might offer new solutions to many problems that scale well to very large numbers of users, or to systems where central authorities do not prevail.
WordNet® is a large lexical database of English. Nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms (synsets), each expressing a distinct concept. Synsets are interlinked by means of conceptual-semantic and lexical relations.
