The STASIS ProjectThe STASIS ProjectSTASIS is providing a generic semantic software and service platform using service oriented architectures to guarantee interoperability among industries and organisations
Full Title: SofTware for Ambient Semantic Interoperable ServicesDuration: September 2006 - August 2009
Funding: European Union's Sixth Framework Programme, 3.8M€ Cost 2.7M€ EU Grant
Project Partner : The STASIS consortium consists of a mix of technology providers, academic institutions, SMEs and large industrial organizations. There are 12 partners in total – 9 from Europe and 3 from China

A company has wishes to trade electronically with other companies or a public administration
They wish to exchange all types of information ranging from Orders through to Company Returns
They understand that these days its not the hardware, software or communications that is expensive…but the configuration of the systems to understand the information traded and transform it into different partners systems
They don’t have time to understand the technical specifications of XML, EDI or IDOCS messages etc…but they do know the user concepts (the semantics) and want to take advantage of them
So they want something that allows information transformation but based on their user knowledge only, and for it to be easy and cheap to do

The Business Problem

STASIS
Simply….
“If I have information in my format, and it is integrated into my systems, I want to put minimal effort into mapping this to any format to do business with another party”.

Industrial concerns
How can I keep my own semantics without being forced to use those of others?
Why do I need to invest and keep track of standards when I have neither the time nor money?
How can I link the semantics of my messages and services with that of my customers without paying huge consultancy fees?
How can I create new data structures which are based on real world use rather than standards theory?
How is it possible I can trade with any party with minimal reconfiguration no matter what their country, language?
Can you present me something whereby I can utilise any data structure (EDI, XML…) yet the semantic knowledge is retained?
How can i easily access and share all the information in the network
How can I take advantage of existing knowledge in the network

And once you can link semantically, you can extract the syntax and output a neutral format to any translator

Existing Standards can form sets of inputs but
they are not ‘the’ reference but IF good enough they can be
Standards which arnt used by the market arnt
standards
If you feel lost and isolated search the
existing STASIS community for
semantics/structures you do know
The more links you have the more certainty you
have of making semantic pathways
Semantics become Competitive – The more
people use you...the more people that will use
you
