Open Information Integration (OpenII) Friday Data Stories: DBpedia and Linked Product Data. Continuing to build on our Friday data stories, today we present a story about Next Web and Linked Data. Let’s start by talking a bit about what I believe is the future of the web. Tim Berners-Lee is universally acknowledged to have invented the World Wide Web (www) whilst working at CERN (in Geneva) back the early 1990s. Twenty years later, Tim Berners-Lee once again has a vision for the future of the www. The original www was about documents (Web 1.0). It was followed by Web 2.0 in the early 2000s and still has to do with interaction, participation, and collaboration. Tim Berners-Lee links the future of the web to *data*. He calls it the “web of data”; some people start referring to it as Web 3.0 or the Semantic Web (these designations have yet to gel in the mind of the public).

Let’s now move to Wikipedia , which you’ll no doubt recognize as the online encyclopedia that has becomes hugely popular in the last few years. Introducing DBpedia. Best, Oleg *image courtesy of linkeddata.org. Lancement de la plate-forme Informatica 9.1 | 7 juin à 14h00. IEEE Intelligent Systems | Call for Papers | March/April 2012 - Special Issue on Linked Open Government Data. Submission deadline: CLOSED Publication: March/April 2013 Opinions play a primary role in decision-making processes. Whenever people need to make a choice, they are naturally inclined to hear others' opinions. In particular, when the decision involves consuming valuable resources, such as time and/or money, people strongly rely on their peers' past experiences. Just a few years ago, the main sources for collecting such information were friends, acquaintances and, in some cases, specialized magazines or websites.

The passage from a read-only to a read-write Web has provided people with new tools that allow them to create and share, in a timely and cost-efficient way, their own contents, ideas, and opinions with virtually millions of people connected to the World Wide Web. Articles are thus invited in areas such as AI, the Semantic Web, knowledge-based systems, and adaptive and transfer learning for research on opinion and sentiment retrieval and analysis. Potential topics include. Russian Gov2.0 movement. Digest. Part #1 | Alena Popova. Innovations & Government 2.0 in Russia. Pubby – A Linked Data Frontend for SPARQL Endpoints. Pubby can be used to add Linked Data interfaces to SPARQL endpoints. Much Semantic Web data lives inside triple stores and can be accessed only by sending SPARQL queries to a SPARQL endpoint. It is hard to connect information in these stores with other external data sources. Linked Data is a style of publishing data on the Semantic Web that makes it easy to interlink, discover and consume data on the Semantic Web.

It allows a wide variety of existing RDF browsers (e.g. Disco, Tabulator, OpenLink Browser), RDF crawlers (e.g. SWSE, Swoogle), and query agents (e.g. SemWeb Client Library, SWIC) to access the data. Pubby makes it easy to turn a SPARQL endpoint into a Linked Data server. News 2011-01-26: Pubby 0.3.3 released. Features How It Works Many triple stores and other SPARQL endpoints can be accessed only by SPARQL client applications that use the SPARQL protocol. In RDF, resources are identified by URIs. Download and Installation Configuration There is an example configuration file. Publish My Data | A Linked Data Publishing Platform.

Browsable Data Website All data published is browsable and searchable via a public website which can be customised to suit your brand. This provides access to the data for a variety of audiences: from interested lay-people and data analysts to software developers. As an example of what's possible, see OpenDataCommunities, the DCLG's official Linked Data site, or refer to our case studies. In addition to this core Linked Data publishing, it's easy to enhance data-users' experience, by building rich web applications and visualisations into the site. This is made possible by our highly extensible and flexible community edition framework on which the sites are based. Public APIs As well as full downloads of each dataset, PublishMyData provides a variety of well-documented APIs (example) for software developers to consume your data. You have the option of asking users to sign up for API keys by supplying contact details and how they're using your data.

Administration Tools Compatible & Flexible. Les réseaux sociaux numériques d’entreprises. Et voici de nouveau une chronique autour d’un ouvrage, les réseaux sociaux numériques d’entreprise, ce que j’ai coutume d’appeler un RSE. Ce qui a été plaisant à lire dans ce livre, c’est qu’il est construit tout autant autour des réflexions personnelles de l’auteur, Ziryeb Marouf, RH 2.0 chez France Télécom Orange, que de son retour d’expérience du déploiement du réseau d’Orange à l’ensemble des collaborateurs du groupe. Je dois avouer que sur le moment j’ai été un peu désarçonné, car il n’est pas construit comme les différents livres que j’ai lu et chroniqué ces derniers temps, à savoir : la boite à outils avec de nombreux témoignages/retours d’expérience. Au bout du compte revenir à une lecture linéaire c’est aussi agréable. Son ouvrage commence donc par explorer comment dans un réseau les individus interagissent entre eux, à travers un regard sociologique.

The online community manager position has become mainstream. Many have referenced my outline for the Responsibilities and Goals for a Community Manager. I have been evolving that definition since 2007 and it remains my most read post. But the concept of having one person doing all things social is limiting. Companies are taking community to a new level by empowering staff. Definition of Community Many consider community in a very limited way. Internal Community – All corporate stakeholders including staff, management, executives, board members and shareholders.External Community – Brand owned properties; Corporate presences on social networks (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn); Social channels (blogs, Wikipedia entries, forums, Nings, Google & Yahoo groups, YouTube, Flickr); Mainstream media that allow comments; Ratings and review sites (Amazon, TripAdvisor, etc) Anyone searching for information The last one is key.

Meeting Business Objectives The community strategy role will work towards: Nous avons développé, nous intégrons, vous utiliserez. Read this post in: Anglais Quelle que soit la manière dont nous l’appelons, Entreprise 2.0, social business ou jenesaisquoi collaboratif, ce que nous pouvons actuellement observer est, aux dires des éditeurs, une évolution de plus en plus marquée vers une certaine maturité des principales plateformes. Au cours de son dernier symposium, le Gartner Group a tenu une session intitulée «Managing Social Software Maturity: Supporting Pioneers and Settlers» (gérer la maturité des applications sociales: aider les pionniers et les colons), et prédit un marché proche du milliard de dollars pour les plateformes collaboratives en 2011.

Les défauts de la Méthodologie Projet Les méthodes de conception et d’intégration de la plupart des applications métiers actuelles sont toujours dérivées du modèle design-build-run.

Le blog de Réutilisation des données publiques: Comment cataloguer des données publiques ? Le Guide pratique que nous avons publié il y a quelques semaines s'enrichit petit à petit de nouveau contenus.

Avant sa deuxième édition nous vous en soumettons ici certains, sous forme d'articles. Aujourd'hui il s'agit d'un article plutôt technique sur la manière de cataloguer des données (voir partie 2.3.2 du guide). C'est un sujet qui se structure progressivement avec la naissance progressive de bonnes pratiques voire de standards. Commentaire évidemment bienvenus (il faut s'identifier pour commenter).

Quelles données pour décrire des jeux de données ? Du point de vue réglementaire, l’article 36 du décret n° 2005-1755 du 30 décembre 2005 stipule que les répertoires des informations publiques doivent préciser, « pour chacun des documents recensés, son titre exact, son objet, la date de sa création, les conditions de sa réutilisation et, le cas échéant, la date et l'objet de ses mises à jour ».

Learn Linked Data: Helping you get to grips with RDF, SPARQL and Linked Data. Linked Data at the Open University and the ROLE project | alexmikro.net. French Project Datalift Seeks to Interlink Data. A new research project out of France known as Datalift seeks to bring “raw structured data coming from various formats (relational databases, CSV, XML, … ) to semantic data interlinked on the Web of Data.” The project will be fully funded by the French national research agency for the next three years. According to Datalift’s website, “Datalift will both publish datasets coming from a network of partners and data providers and propose a set of tools for easing the datasets publication process.”

The tools mentioned directly include, “selecting ontologies for publishing data, converting data to the appropriate format (RDF using the selected ontology), publishing the linked data, [and] interlinking data with other data sources.” Datalift’s mission page states, “Datalift will perform research on this topic with the goal of automating the interlinking process. Datalift will also research on novel methods for attaching licenses to linked data. Image: Courtesy Flickr/ existentist. The Web, one huge database ... | Linked Data Research Centre. In an attempt to reaching out to the Web developers (called 'Hacker Joe', here ;) I've compiled a screen-cast on how one can understand the Web as a huge database .

The screen-cast starts out with a bit of explanation of some essentials, however, the bigger part of it is dedicated to two hands-on examples: first we query and use data from DBPedia (the linked data version of Wikipedia) and then we look into a heavily distributed linked data form, that is, using a FOAF profile we again query and use data from there. Note that the accompanying slides are available as well via slideshare . In case you want to test the queries used in the screen-cast along with the endpoints, here you are ...

A Daunting Task What if you were given a large new initiative to lead? Your resources are a team of 180 different groups distributed across the country.

They work for different organizations, each with their own set of priorities and goals. Each group does things just a little differently to accomplish the task at hand. They use different work processes, different software and produce their work in a variety of data formats. What if you needed to pull the work of all of these groups together and present it in a cohesive manner? Now add another factor into this picture…imagine that the preservation of our nation’s digital history was riding on your success. The National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program at the Library of Congress is an initiative to develop a national strategy to collect, archive and preserve the burgeoning amounts of digital content for current and future generations.
