A Semantic Framework for Resource Discovery Based on Ontology

In this paper, we propose a better solution to the limitations involved by using the current standard of syntactic matching for resource discovery in Grid environment. Our observations noted that syntactic matching was limited in its ability to use all available resources. In order to overcome these limitations, we hereby propose a method for resource discovery involving semantic matching based in ontology and explain the industry´s available tools that were involved in implementing this structure. After clearly presenting all aspects of the structure and how to implement it, we offer the results from various simulations, which clearly demonstrate the greater results obtained through semantic matchmaking. In conclusion, we take a brief look at some of the future work that will be possible as a result of our findings.
