Data integration, semantic data representation and decision support for situational awareness in protection of critical assets

This paper presents the design and development of a system for data integration, data representation, situational awareness and decision support that has been developed in the EC-co-funded research project MOSAIC. The paper motivates the architecture and describes the data representation model and the developed system components. It discusses the approach for improved situational awareness and decision support as a novel integration of systems developed under the MOSAIC project as deployed for the protection of critical assets as a demonstrator.
