A global internet brain is an interconnection of computational devices. This interconnection will enable user to access information from any device. The device may be occassionally connected or persistently connected. In the former case, the devices will be synched when brought online. Both kind of ... [More] devices are expected to grow at the same rate. Also the interconnection should enable business transaction, education, entertainment, scientific application and enterprise management from anywhere and anyhow. Of course all these access would require priveleges. On the frontiers of infromation, one application of GIA is semantic web. Semantic web will have information stored in a manner more understandable to the machines which will enable creation of intelligent agent which will deliver information to the users in appropriate format and with less work. am particularly alluding to search engines which has high scope of improvement in terms of amount of work involved in information retrieval To this effect we are creating the format. HTML used a ground breaking concept of hyperlinking. Although, hyperlinking was built for navigation, people soon realized that it actually represents a relation between two documents. This is semanticism at the crudest level. HTML is a presentation mark-up language. The presentation capabilities in the initial specification was not rich. More richness was added later through style tags. The world wide web was imagined as a medium for sharing documents. But it soon grew to be a medium for distributing networked applications. HTML lacked interactive capabilities which was later provided by javascript. At present, HTML enables interactivity through a lot of hacks. HTML has no semantic structuring of data. This is where XML is so good. It is a brilliant format for creating structured document. XML's presentation capabilities is low though. Since xml is a document format there is understandably no interactivity. So our idea here is to embed a structured document like xml, add the presentation capabilties of HTML, styling of CSS and interactivity of a desktop application. This will provide a perfect platform for content providers who will get the best of the three. When all the document over internet is structured a number of intelligent application will be created that will harness the power of the semantic web and the global internet brain. [Less]
