This document discusses using an event-web perspective and situation-based modeling to analyze multimodal event data from various sources and environments. It proposes connecting real users, events, and places rather than just documents. Key points include representing events and objects as basic linking mechanisms, allowing inference across events to derive meaningful situations, and applying this approach to applications like building control, telepresence, and emergency response to support decision making. The document outlines approaches for situation modeling and control using a situation calculus framework to reason about events and influence environments.
