W3C Launches Object Memory Modeling Incubator Group

W3C is pleased to announce the creation of the Object Memory Modeling Incubator Group, whose mission is to define an object memory format, which allows for modeling of events or other information about individual physical artifacts - ideally over their lifetime - and which is explicitly designed to support data storage of those logs on so-called smart labels attached to the physical artifact. The following W3C Members have sponsored the charter for this group: German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI GmbH), SAP AG, Siemens AG.

Incubator Activity work is not on the W3C standards track but in many cases serves as a starting point for a future Working Group.
