The established system of journals for communicating the results of scientific research is already being challenged by
the existence of the web. But we are only in the early days of a new Internet revolution, one which will have a deeper and
more disruptive impact on scientific, and other, web publishing, and have profound implications for the web itself. An
emerging successor for the web, the Semantic Web, will likely profoundly change the vary nature of how scientific
knowledge is produced and shared, in ways that we can now barely imagine.

Create agent software that allows these scientists to search the world for relevant scientific results using inference to create new results from the existing global data.
