                          ONTOLOGY MATCHING

BRIEF DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES
Ontology matching is a key interoperability enabler for the Semantic Web, 
as well as a useful tactic in some classical data integration tasks 
dealing with the semantic heterogeneity problem. It takes the ontologies 
as input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of 
correspondences between the semantically related entities of those ontologies. 
These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology
merging, data translation, query answering or navig

Yeah, it's been suggested many times - never seen it in the wild though.

If you want to use it, just define the datatype, it's not a Turtle feature per se - should work just as well in RDF/XML or whatever.

Turtle data-type

Henry Story — 2013-05-20T15:39:00

Hi,

 In Turtle there is no way of specifying a graph. But one
could get something close by having a datatype say lang:Turtle,
such that the value of this would be the graph resulting from 
interpreting the content of the string to a graph.

<member> log:semantics "<http://bblfish.net/#me> a <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person>"^^lang:Turtle 

Then Turtle could have a way to express graphs, so we could
do some of the things N3 does with Turtle in a less elegant
fashion while waiting for N3 to be specfied.

reactive and reliable query answering over such massive datasets,
allowing integration of highly dynamic sources. Key to their success

Christoph LANGE — 2013-05-20T11:18:35

25th OpenMath Workshop
Bath, UK
10 July 2013
co-located with CICM 2013
Submission deadline 7 June

http://www.cicm-conference.org/2013/openmath/

OBJECTIVES

OpenMath (http://www.openmath.org) is a language for exchanging
mathematical formulae across applications (such as computer algebra
systems).  From 2010 its importance has increased in that OpenMath
Content Dictionaries were adopted as a foundation of the MathML 3 W3C
recommendation (http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML), the standard for
mathematical formulae on the Web.

Topics we expect to see at the workshop include

   * Feature Requests (Standard Enhancement Proposals) and Discussions
     for going beyond OpenMath 2;
   * Further convergence of OpenMath and MathML 3;
   * Reasoning with OpenMath;
   * Software using or processing OpenMath;
   * OpenMath on the Semantic Web;
   * New OpenMath Content Dictionaries;

Contributions can be either full research papers, Standard Enhancement
Proposals, or a description of new Content Dictionaries, particularly

I guess I'm guilty (as are many others in fact) of not being very clear 
in my terminology regarding the distinction of Liked Data and Linked 
Open Data. But then, our text shows that one has to take the "open" with 
a caveat ... so perhaps the confusion in terminology is actually

Thanks, Denny, for the analysis. Very helpful.

As you write:

"they are required to ask their lawyers, and their
lawyers will prefer to play it safe for their clients (it is their job!)
and advise them accordingly. And for all of these people, the CC0
license is an item of assurance."

I don't feel qualified to assess the legal situation - but what you

we need to create awareness of the issues.

Re: There's No Money in Linked Data

ProjectParadigm-ICT-Program — 2013-05-18T06:25:53

I beg to differ. I have been looking at the use of linked data for both commercial and non-profit purposes and it is only with commercial used that these intellectual property rights issues pose a real obstacle.

We are still thinking in business models of the old paradigm for online business. 

Think FaceBook. If enough users use linked data in predominantly streams of raw data but there are some collective cloud uses of this huge amount of data, the users of raw data become the monetizable commodity, not the linked data directly. But since the raw data defines the data user collective, the linked data acquires added value through its users through the cloud services employed.

There you have it, Pascal you have forced me to give away part of the new categories of business models I mentioned in an earlier email,

Indirect acquired added value through users.
