Abstract

The Webdam ERC grant (S. Abiteboul) started in December 2008. The goal is to develop a formal model for Web data management that would open new horizons for the development of the Web in a well-principled way, enhancing its functionality, performance, and reliability. More specifically, the aim is to create a universally accepted formal framework for describing complex and flexible interacting Web applications featuring notably data exchange, sharing, integration, querying and updating. It is also to develop formal foundations enabling peers to concurrently reason about global data management activities and cooperate in solving specific tasks with desired quality of service.
