Abstract

This paper presents a method of connecting and using information on a distributed network. Web ontology language (OWL) is used to describe and connect information according to the transitive property. Peer to peer (P2P) is used to construct this system. An information management server is used to boost the efficiency for connecting information. Consequently, this system is a hybrid P2P system. A bidirectional depth-first search algorithm is used for seeking an information connection. We develop a prototype system in which reasoning or information association is conducted for ingredients of a dish of cuisine to describe its nutritional characteristics. For this system, JXTA is used as the P2P platform.
