CubeStudio - A Semantic Desktop

The Semantic Net will be a radically simplified network architecture that will consolidate the upper layers of the Internet to bring context to this newly emerging communications and computing infrastructure. CubeStudio is the human interface portal into this new environment. It supports Vista, Macintosh and Linux, seamlessly providing true semantic processing — meaningful data, information and knowledge exchange. In CubeStudio three context resource forms represent knowledge in a format that will remove barriers between people, organizations and their devices.
A Mind Map is a diagram used to represent any concept - such as a subject, task or process. This technique, although centuries old, has been surprisingly effective in learning, brainstorming, visual thinking and problem solving. A broad and disparate spectrum of people from accountants to zoologists use this style of mapping to assist in addressing problems and decision making. The mind map's effectiveness is not limited to any one domain of practice.

A Topic Map automates the notion of a mind map to augment human intelligence to Net-scale. This high level of organization is necessary to manage the upcoming complexities of the emerging Knowledge Age. A topic map is represented as a subject set linked concentrically around a study topic. A map provides a natural way to organize topics within your computer, as compared to a conventional operating system directory, by overlaying rigid hierarchical file structures with taxonomic-based graph structures. Topics are linked intuitively according to their association as these relationships define their meaning within a particular map. Each topic can link to content resources located in your computer or anywhere on the Internet. This extension is the next evolution step for the World Wide Web as recently described by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in his Giant Global Graph blog and enables a desktop to effectively organize and present resources from across the Net.

This shared knowledge substrate will enable humans to more effectively reflect, interpret and structure information of their everyday work and play activities as graph interrelations through their mobile device or Semantic Desktop. Coretalk's first product captures explicit thought articulations in suitable representations (texts, icons and pictures). This enables exchange, discussion and processing of resources with other entity's across social and organizational networks. The network itself will also become alive when self-directed agents can independently reason about resources across nodes.

The Cubicon platform is the first truly viable realization of the Semantic Net. It stands for 'a-cube-of-icons' that provide a concrete visualization model to general systems representation. Cubicon directly addresses complexity by utilizing an automated multi-dimensional imagery of systems architecture that augments text with dynamic color icons and sound. Its knowledge representation is visible to, and universally interpretable by, any process, thereby enhancing human cognition through its direct icon-to-bits transformation into microprocessor architecture.
Infrastructure

Cubicon consists of a new infrastructure that gives form to a community viewpoint where all knowledge systems are constructed from a common set of executable design components. This commonality enables recombinant components to be globally represented in a language neutral expression medium. Multiple concepts and components that are declared by different communities are automatically harmonized when their meaning is determined to be the same. This process continuously consolidates global knowledge toward a collective intelligence that enables Cubicon to become the foundation for future standards across a wide spectrum of system domains under the Semantic Net.

The ability to consolidate knowledge enables rapid development of dialog between people and organizations, providing an efficient and secure manner to conduct transactions. This automated service infrastructure will enable heterogeneous systems to effectively communicate and initiate rapid adoption of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA).
