Hi, My name is Stephane Fellah. I am the web chief architect of PCI Geomatics. I am co-chairing the Information Communities and Semantic Working Group in OpenGIS Consortium (www.opengis.org), whose goal is to produce specifications to enable interoperability of geospatial data and services over the web. I have participated to a number of testbeds related to web services within OGC (http://ip.opengis.org/ows2/index.html) and to the development of specifications (Web Coverage Service, Image archive, Messaging framework, common architecture).. My areas of interest are in semantic Grid computing, service chaining, semantic query, development of ontologies for geospatial content and services and spatio-temporal reasoning.

Hello, I specialise in the application of semantic web technologies to grid computing, i.e. "semantic grid" (see www.semanticgrid.org) This means applying semantic web both *on* the grid (i.e. in grid applications) but also *in* the grid, i.e. in the grid middleware. Since grid computing is increasingly service-oriented, many semantic grid projects are already exercising the available semantic web machinery for description, discovery and composition of web services. I'm a W3C AC rep and was an "alternate" on Webont, and I chair the Semantic Grid Research Group in the Global Grid Forum. I'm also responsible for some pervasive computing research, which again involves service description, discovery and composition - plus some rather different ontologies and a bunch of engineering issues to do with working in real time.
