  John Yanosy, Chief Architect, Rockwell Collins Government Systems    
John Yanosy has the role of Chief Architect in the Rockwell Collins Government Systems organization, where he has focused on developing an understanding of the technologies and architectures that will enable Network Centric Operations (NCO). Key to the development of this NCO knowledge is his active participation in the Network Centric Industry Operations Consortium (NCOIC), and his role as Chair of the Services and Information Interoperability (SII) working group.

He has extensive industry experience, thirty plus years, of identifying and developing technology solutions for networked environments for business entities such as Rockwell Collins, Motorola, SNET, ITT and Siemens. A common thread that enables his ability to contribute to different industries and technology areas has been his adoption of a continuous learning process ranging across multiple scientific, engineering, and mathematical disciplines for the express purpose of gaining knowledge to enable the design of technology solutions that are more responsive and adaptive to user needs. His most recent focus for the past six years has been on fostering and leveraging the Semantic Web and its concepts for enabling networked solutions that utilize semantic knowledge to adapt services and resources to satisfy particular user context requirements.

   
 

Presentation
Semantic Interoperability: a Network-Centric Operations Perspective
Network Centric Operations (NCO) has the goal of significantly improving operational effectiveness for different Communities of Interest (COI) through networking of services, knowledge, and capabilities. A fundamental premise is that sharing knowledge relevant to the operational and situational context for networked participants will enable more effective collaboration, better situational relevant decisions, and faster adaptation in highly dynamic environments. The NCOIC Services and Information Interoperability (SII) working group has the goal of developing knowledge about the common semantic interoperability requirements and problems in this networked environment, and multi-dimensional model descriptions of possible solution patterns and their Net Centric characteristics.

This talk focuses on identifying some of the semantic interoperability requirements and problems that have to be solved from an NCO perspective, and how the NCOIC SII is creating Ontologies to create a semantic knowledge base that integrates and relates these Net Centric requirements, semantic interoperability problems; standards based solution patterns, and their relevant multi-dimensional model descriptions.
