I have added a wiki page to begin the discussion (as well as collect
different anecdotes and examples) into the various kinds of return of
investment (ROI) that could be realized by applying semantic web
technologies:
http://esw.w3.org/topic/HCLSIG/ROI
Any additional examples people would like to include and discuss should be
added to the list of examples on this page.
Although areas of potential benefits are identified and presented in
economic terms, estimates of how much the semantic web could improve these
situations do not yet exist. It is hoped that one goal of this discussion
will help put into context the potential value of some of the current HCLS
tasks. Working demonstrations will allow us to begin estimating how much
of an impact (e.g., reducing development and data design time and costs)
these approaches will have in the various HCLS areas.
