A Small-World Network Model for Distributed Storage of Semantic Metadata

Leist, A. and Hawick, K.A.

    The growing uptake of semantic web and grid ideas is raising the importance of optimising distribution algorithms for semantic metadata. While it is not yet clear how real-world metadata distribution patterns ought to evolve, practical experience of social and technical networks suggests that a small-world pattern is desirable and practical. We explore simulated small-world networks of semantic metadata and some graph parameters and metrics. We discuss the implications of inter- and intra-domain path lengths for semantic queries on web and grid structures.
