A method of providing a semantic data architecture includes providing a data model layer. The data model layer is formed by a processor, a storage device, a memory, and a communication interface in combination with a data model application program stored in the storage device. The processor, running the data model application program, is configured to use the storage device, memory, and communication interface to selectively receive source data from a source device, process the corresponding source data based on pre-defined data types and filtering terms to form semantic data arranged in a binary tree structure, and store the semantic data in the storage device. The method also includes providing a data filtering layer. The method may also include providing memory model, general purpose parser, backward inference, primitive functions, rewriting engine, and reasoning engine layers in various combinations. An apparatus for providing a semantic data architecture is also provided.
