Abstract

With the Semantic Grid as the problem solving environment, we will face many unexpected problems, as in traditional problem solving. The problems to be solved are often complex and refer to large-scale domain knowledge from crossover disciplines. The relationship between problem solving and the Semantic Grid is our topic in this chapter. And we will focus on how to manage and reuse ontology that embodies domain knowledge based on the infrastructure of the Semantic Grid. The major goal is to harness the Semantic Grid to support efficient and dynamic problem solving.
