In order to proceed with the market assessment, every partners should become responsible of some types of applications in order to:

• Give new inputs into the blog
• Perform a detailed analysis on the specific applications

NEXT STEPS – January-March

1. In the next 2 weeks (before Friday 30/1/2009), every partner should go to the wiki page and considering the proposed list of applications:

   • Indicate which ones every partner would like to analyze http://wiki.larkc.eu/LarkcProject/WP9/ProductAndServices

   • Every partner can add or remove some applications from the list supporting the decision by an opportune justification
   • OPTIONAL: Besides the tasks described in the previous lines, every partner can also indicate
     • References to researches or analysis that you already know about the proposed applications
     • The names of the most important companies which develop such products
     • The industrial sectors targeted by these applicationso
   • Soon afterwards, the assignments will be finalized
2. In the following 2 months, every partner should give new inputs into the blog, by searching new entries in the web

COMMENTS and ADDITIONAL NOTES ·

• Naso: “There are other quantitative analysis of the market (besides Mills Davis)”
• Naso: “One category is missing: semantic data integration (like for example in the life science area) or data warehousing/business intelligence”

• Naso&Yi: “Not all categories are really meaningful to be monitored; maybe some of them on the other hand can be interesting for more than one partner”

• Armando: “The final decision about the meaningful applications to be monitored could be taken after entering the new entries into the blog in the next two months. We’ll have to rank all the proposed applications”

• Naso: “We also should perform a cross-industry analysis --> e.g. we have some idea and analysis of the potentials of applying semantic technologies to life science”

• Naso: “We should make a list of semantic technology providers and assign them to categories (those companies can be chosen among the sponsors of the various semantic conferences over the last years)”
