Semantically-Enabled Virtual Observatories
"... Abstract. We are developing a semantic data framework for virtual observatories. A Virtual Observatory provides online location, retrieval, and analysis services to a variety of heterogeneous scientific data sources. We employ semantic technologies to integrate data and provide “intelligent” service ..."

Semantically Enabled Temporal Reasoning in a Virtual Observatory
"... Abstract. The Virtual Solar-Terrestrial Observatory (VSTO) is a distributed, scalable education and research environment for searching, integrating, and analyzing observational, experimental and model databases in fields of solar, solar-terrestrial and space physics. Our work on VSTO required us to ..."

Web Services for the Virtual Observatory
- In Proc
, 2002
"... Web Services form a new, emerging paradigm to handle distributed access to resources over the Internet. There are platform independent standards (SOAP, WSDL), which make the developers' task considerably easier. This article dis cusses how web services could be used in the context of the Virtua ..."

of the Virtual Observatory. We envisage a multi-layer architecture, with interoperating services. A well-designed lower layer consisting of simple, standard services implemented by most data providers will go a long way towards establishing a modular architecture . More complex applications can be built upon
Interoperability tools for the Virtual Observatory
, 2000
"... Interoperability is one of the key issues in the current efforts to build the Virtual Observatory. We present here some of the tools which already contribute to the efficient exchange of information between archives, databases, and journals. Keywords: interoperability, Virtual Observatory, astrophy ..."

The National Virtual Observatory
, 2002
"... As a scientific discipline, Astronomy is rather unique. We only have one laboratory, the Universe, and we cannot, of course, change the initial conditions and study the resulting e#ects. On top of this, acquiring Astronomical data has historically been a very labor-intensive e#ort. As a result, data ..."
