Abstract :
This case study summarizes the demonstration of a semantic network of interoperable educational systems referred to as Smart Space for Learningtrade. We started connecting several educational nodes in projects such as Elena, Prolearn, and Icamp. Integration was achieved by using the interaction standard SQI, common schemas for querying and results presentation, and query exchange language, e.g. QEL. The paper particularly focuses on how heterogeneous nodes can be made interoperable by reusing generalizations of mediating components - building blocks for a Smart Space for Learningtrade
