The European Materials and Modelling Ontology (EMMO) is a top-level ontology designed by the European Materials Modelling Council to facilitate semantic interoperability between platforms, models, and tools in computational molecular engineering, integrated computational materials engineering, and related applications of materials modelling and characterization. Additionally, domain ontologies exist based on data technology developments from specific platforms. The present work discusses the ongoing work on establishing a European Virtual Marketplace Framework, into which diverse platforms can be integrated. It addresses common challenges that arise when marketplace-level domain ontologies are combined with a top-level ontology like the EMMO by ontology alignment.

The European Materials and Modelling Ontology (EMMO) has recently been advanced in the computational molecular engineering and multiscale modelling communities as a top-level ontology, aiming to support semantic interoperability and data integration solutions, e.g., for research data infrastructures. The present work explores how top-level ontologies that are based on the same paradigm - the same set of fundamental postulates - as the EMMO can be applied to models of physical systems and their use in computational engineering practice. This paradigm, which combines mereology (in its extension as mereotopology) and semiotics (following Peirces approach), is here referred to as mereosemiotics. Multiple conceivable ways of implementing mereosemiotics are compared, and the design space consisting of the possible types of top-level ontologies following this paradigm is characterized.
By introducing a common representational system for metadata that describe the employed simulation workflows, diverse sources of data and platforms in computational molecular engineering, such as workflow management systems, can become interoperable at the semantic level. To achieve semantic interoperability, the present work introduces two ontologies that provide a formal specification of the entities occurring in a simulation workflow and the relations between them: The software ontology VISO is developed to represent software packages and their features, and OSMO, an ontology for simulation, modelling, and optimization, is introduced on the basis of MODA, a previously developed semi-intuitive graph notation for workflows in materials modelling. As a proof of concept, OSMO is employed to describe a use case of the TaLPas workflow management system, a scheduler and workflow optimizer for particle-based simulations.
Testing and experimentation are crucial for promoting innovation and building systems that can evolve to meet high levels of service quality. IoT data that belong to users and from which their personal information can be inferred are frequently share d in the background of IoT systems with third parties for experimentation and building quality services. This data sharing raises privacy concerns especially since in most cases the data are gathered and shared without the users knowledge or explicit consent or for different purposes than the one for which the data were initially gathered. With the introduction of GDPR, IoT systems and experimentation platforms that federate data from different deployments, testbeds and data providers must be privacy-preserving. The wide adoption of IoT applications in scenarios ranging from smart cities to Industry 4.0 has raised concerns with respect to the privacy of users data collected using IoT devices. Many experimental smart city applications are also using crowdsourcing data. Inspired by the GDPR requirements, we propose an IoT ontology built using available standards that enhances privacy, enables semantic interoperability between IoT deployments and supports the development of privacy-preserving experimental IoT applications. On top, we propose recommendations on how to efficiently use the ontology within IoT testbed and federating platforms. Our ontology is validated for different quality assessment criteria using standard validation tools. We focus on experimentation without loss of generality, because it covers scenarios from both research and industry, that are directly linked with innovation.
The ability to reliably predict the structures and stabilities of a molecular crystal and its polymorphs without any prior experimental information would be an invaluable tool for a number of fields, with specific and immediate applications in the de sign and formulation of pharmaceuticals. In this case, detailed knowledge of the polymorphic energy landscape for an active pharmaceutical ingredient yields profound insight regarding the existence and likelihood of late-appearing polymorphs. However, the computational prediction of the structures and stabilities of molecular crystal polymorphs is particularly challenging due to the high dimensionality of conformational and crystallographic space accompanied by the need for relative (free) energies to within $approx$ 1 kJ/mol per molecule. In this work, we combine the most successful crystal structure sampling strategy with the most accurate energy ranking strategy of the latest blind test of organic crystal structure prediction (CSP), organized by the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre (CCDC). Our final energy ranking is based on first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations that include three key physical contributions: (i) a sophisticated treatment of Pauli exchange-repulsion and electron correlation effects with hybrid functionals, (ii) inclusion of many-body van der Waals dispersion interactions, and (iii) account of vibrational free energies. In doing so, this combined approach has an optimal success rate in producing the crystal structures corresponding to the five blind-test molecules. With this practical approach, we demonstrate the feasibility of obtaining reliable structures and stabilities for molecular crystals of pharmaceutical importance, paving the way towards an enhanced fundamental understanding of polymorphic energy landscapes and routine industrial application of molecular CSP methods.
Quantum technology has made tremendous strides over the past two decades with remarkable advances in materials engineering, circuit design and dynamic operation. In particular, the integration of different quantum modules has benefited from hybrid qu antum systems, which provide an important pathway for harnessing the different natural advantages of complementary quantum systems and for engineering new functionalities. This review focuses on the current frontiers with respect to utilizing magnetic excitatons or magnons for novel quantum functionality. Magnons are the fundamental excitations of magnetically ordered solid-state materials and provide great tunability and flexibility for interacting with various quantum modules for integration in diverse quantum systems. The concomitant rich variety of physics and material selections enable exploration of novel quantum phenomena in materials science and engineering. In addition, the relative ease of generating strong coupling and forming hybrid dynamic systems with other excitations makes hybrid magnonics a unique platform for quantum engineering. We start our discussion with circuit-based hybrid magnonic systems, which are coupled with microwave photons and acoustic phonons. Subsequently, we are focusing on the recent progress of magnon-magnon coupling within confined magnetic systems. Next we highlight new opportunities for understanding the interactions between magnons and nitrogen-vacancy centers for quantum sensing and implementing quantum interconnects. Lastly, we focus on the spin excitations and magnon spectra of novel quantum materials investigated with advanced optical characterization.
