Application Programming Interface and Hypergraph Transfer Protocol Supporting a Global Hypergraph Approach to Reducing Complexity For Accelerated Multi-Disciplinary Scientific Discovery

摘要

A system and method for connecting one or more client applications with one or more knowledge representation servers and communicating there between includes an application programming interface (API) and a hypergraph transfer protocol (HGTP), for facilitating communication between the one or more client applications and one or more knowledge representation servers responsive to a client application request. The client application request includes an API call for a specific entity that is received by a first knowledge representation server. If the first knowledge representation server does not manage the specific entity, the first knowledge representation server forwards the specific entity call to a second knowledge representation server via the HGTP using a universal unique identifier (UUID) associated with the specific entity having encoded therein a network address for the second knowledge representation server.
