Summary: | Trilogy is a collaborative project whose key aim is the development of an
integrated virtual laboratory to support research training within each
institution and collaborative projects between the partners. In this paper, the
architecture and underpinning platform of the system is described with
particular emphasis being placed on the structure and the integration of the
distributed database. A key element is the ontology that provides the
multi-agent system with a conceptualisation specification of the domain; this
ontology is explained, accompanied by a discussion how such a system is
integrated and used within the virtual laboratory. Although in this paper,
Telecommunications and in particular Broadband networks are used as exemplars,
the underlying system principles are applicable to any domain where a
combination of experimental and literature-based resources are required. |
