This document discusses Kno.e.sis' projects on a federated semantic services platform and material database knowledge discovery for material sciences. It proposes a federated architecture with provenance and access control to realize open digital data sharing while protecting private data. The architecture uses semantic mappings and query processing across distributed public, shared, and private material databases. Provenance metadata captured during experiments can improve reproducibility and trust in material products. Flexible access control policies allow custom sharing of semantic data at different granularities with public communities or collaborators.
