Linked Data - Design Issues. Up to Design Issues The Semantic Web isn't just about putting data on the web.
It is about making links, so that a person or machine can explore the web of data. With linked data, when you have some of it, you can find other, related, data. Data provenance. First Drafts of Three Audio API Specifications Published 15 December 2011 The Audio Working Group has published three First Public Working Drafts to provide an advanced audio API for the Web: the Web Audio API and MediaStream Processing API specifications each define a different approach to process and synthesize audio streams directly in script.
These APIs can be used for interactive applications, games, 3D environments, musical applications, educational applications, and for the purposes of accessibility. They include the ability to synchronize, visualize, or enhance sound information when used in conjunction with graphics APIs. Read the blog post Sounding Out the Audio APIs for more information about the possibilities unlocked by an audio API, and learn more about the Rich Web Clients Activity.

How DBpedia Treats Wikipedia as a Database - ReadWriteCloud. DBpedia is a community driven effort that treats Wikipedia like a database, enabling people to do more sophisticated queries, distribute the open encyclopedia's data to the Web and add back to Wikipedia for the purposes of enriching it.
In a blog post this week, the community showed again what makes the service a unique effort with the launch of the latest version of the technology. You can get into the weeds pretty quick with DBpedia when seeking to better understand how it functions. We see it useful to think of it in terms of context. On Wikipedia, you can do keyword searches for the Rhine River in Germany. But you can't ask it questions that have more context such as the rivers that flow into the Rhine that are longer than 50 kilometers. How the emergence of the semantic web changes the way we think about information architecture. : block, slab, pillar.
DBpedia. DBpedia ( from "DB" for "database" ) is a project aiming to extract structured content from the information created as part of the Wikipedia project.
This structured information is then made available on the World Wide Web.[1] DBpedia allows users to query relationships and properties associated with Wikipedia resources, including links to other related datasets.[2] DBpedia has been described by Tim Berners-Lee as one of the more famous parts of the decentralized Linked Data effort.[3] Background[edit] The project was started by people at the Free University of Berlin and the University of Leipzig, in collaboration with OpenLink Software,[4] and the first publicly available dataset was published in 2007. It is made available under free licences, allowing others to reuse the dataset. Dataset[edit] From this dataset, information spread across multiple pages can be extracted, for example book authorship can be put together from pages about the work, or the author.

The State of Linked Data in 2010. Grassroots Programs - Annual2009. In addition to programs sponsored by divisions, round tables and committees, this year's Annual Conference features 10 "Grassroots Programs" selected by a jury of library school students and practitioners from 118 proposals.
These Grassroots Programs are part of ALA president Jim Rettig's presidential initiative to increase opportunities for members to participate in, contribute to and benefit from their association. How to publish Linked Data on the Web. This document provides a tutorial on how to publish Linked Data on the Web.
After a general overview of the concept of Linked Data, we describe several practical recipes for publishing information as Linked Data on the Web. This tutorial has been superseeded by the book Linked Data: Evolving the Web into a Global Data Space written by Tom Heath and Christian Bizer. This tutorial was published in 2007 and is still online for historical reasons. The Linked Data book was published in 2011 and provides a more detailed and up-to-date introduction into Linked Data.
