Abstract:
In real world cases, building reliable problem centric views over Linked Data is a challenging task. An ideal method should include a formal representation of the requirements of the needed dataset and a controlled process moving from the original sources to the outcome. We believe that a goal oriented approach, similar to the AI planning problem, could be successful in controlling the process of linked data fusion, as well as to formalize the relations between requirements, process and result.
