Here's a question to get you started:

What is one system that has not worked well for you in managing diverse types and sources of data? Why?

Web 3.0 -- A Free Wiki for Executable English

idea

What is the idea?

There is a system on the Web that works as a kind of Wiki, for content in open vocabulary, executable English. 

As you know, English text (like this sentence) is normally something for a person to read, but it cannot be used as a program that you can run on a computer.

On the other hand, executable English is something that a person can read, and that you can also run on a computer.

As befits a Wiki, shared use of the system is free.  Just point a browser to www.reengineeringllc.com .

Since the executable knowledge is in English, Google indexes and retrieves it, acting  as a kind of registry. 

You can use your browser to write programs in English, run them, and get English explanations of the results. 

Applications of the system include: Answering Questions about Stimulus Data, Risk Analysis, Reasoning over Taxonomies, Knowledge Based Data Mining, Business Intelligence, and Supply Chain Management. Please see [1-6].

To use the system there is nothing to install.  Simply point your browser to the site below, to run the examples provided, and to write and run your own examples.

As mentioned, shared use of the system is free.

Please be aware that anyone on the web can view, run and change anything that you write into the shared area.  There is also private group use -- please see www.reengineeringllc.com/terms_and_conditions.html .

Apologies if you have seen this before, and thanks for your comments,

Why is it important?

It's a way for people to social-network about knowledge in executable English.

A semantic wiki is a great way to get everyone moving towards the same meaning in their communication.
