| Abstract: | Motivated by the undisputed emergence of 3D content, this paper presents cases where semantic technologies have the potential to be used to build robust real-life solutions out of the AIM@SHAPE Digital Shape Workbench both in its current and its future forms. We focus on understanding what makes semantic knowledge applications successful in operational environments which involve shapes and present existing and future scenarios on favoring ontology based integration that systematically resolves both syntactic and semantic heterogeneity, allowing scientists to concentrate more on their content.
