Abstract
The Web is evolving into a global information and knowledge space that brings huge potentials as well as great challenges. The Semantic Web tries to harness the inter-connected information space by giving information well-defined meaning, but so far failed to deliver its promises. This paper introduces a bottom-up approach to heterogeneous data and knowledge modeling and fusion. The enabling technologies for this approach include the Semantic Web, personalized knowledge portal and social networking. We describe a system architecture that allows individuals to create semantic content in their own desktop with little effort and pool it into a global virtual knowledge base where content can be seamlessly fused and shared. A prototype system is partially developed to illustrate the operation of the approach through which testing and evaluation are conducted.
