  The most exciting challenge for CRIS is to create a service for research
information which should be wide-spread, distributed and actual like Google,
but at the same time structured, trusted, with a complex search and navigation
similar to today CRIS application. The core technology for such a "new" CRIS is
the semantic web technology to integrate database contents with HTML and XML
web pages for being provided to the research interested public. One (at the
moment the best) possible way is to use RDF (Resource Description Framework)
which is also recommended by the W3 consortium.
