KartOO Ontology Best Practices As an information society we have become a software society. Software is everywhere, from our phones and our desktops, to our cars, homes and every location in between. The amount of software used worldwide is unknowable; we do not even have agreed measures to quantify its extent or value [1]. We suspect there are at least 1 billion lines of code that have accumulated over time [1,2]. On the order of $875 billion was spent worldwide on software in 2010, of which about half was for packaged software and licenses and the rest for programmer services, consulting and outsourcing [3]. It goes without saying that software is a very big deal. No matter what the metrics, it is expensive to develop and maintain software. This attention has caused a myriad of schools and practices to develop over time. Altogether, there are dozens of software development philosophies, each with its passionate advocates. The Ontology Perspective in this Mix But Is Software Engineering Even the Right Focus?

Hunch Knowledge Media Institute | The Open University "The Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which information is given well-defined meaning, better enabling computers and people to work in cooperation" (Berners-Lee et al., 2001). Our research in the Semantic Web area looks at the potentials of fusing together advances in a range of disciplines, and applying them in a systemic way to simplify the development of intelligent, knowledge-based web services and to facilitate human access and use of knowledge available on the web. For instance, we are exploring ways in which tnatural language interfaces can be used to facilitate access to data distributed over different repositories. We are also developing infrastructures to support rapid development and deployment of semantic web services, which can be used to create web applications on-the-fly.

Top 10 Semantic Web Products of 2009 2009 has seen a lot of Semantic Web and structured data activity. Much of it has been driven by Linked Data, a W3C project which gained momentum this year. According to Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the Web, Linked Data is a sea change akin to the invention of the WWW itself. We've gone from a Web of documents to a Web of data. The 10 products we've picked out for this end-of-year review are ones that have done interesting things with data. Google Search Options and Rich Snippets ReadWriteWeb's Best Products of 2009: In May, Google announced two significant additions to its search product: Search Options and Rich Snippets. Rich snippets extract and show useful information from web pages. Feedly Feedly describes itself as "magazine-like startpage." Feedly Mini integrates Twitter, FriendFeed, Google Search, Mozilla's Ubiquity, and more. Apture In our February review, we came away impressed by Apture due to the amount of multimedia that can be packed into such a little pop-up. Zemanta

incollector Bueda API Turns Tags into RDF URIs - Blog - Semantic Focus - The A large percentage of content that users deal with on a daily basis is created by other users. Every minute more than 90,000 videos and images are uploaded to YouTube, Flickr and other social media websites, yet this represents a relatively small revenue percentage when compared with traditional media. We believe that one reason for this is the publisher's lack of ability to understand high density content that lacks the adequate description. With mobile platforms providing users with easy methods for rich media upload, this problem will rapidly increase. Tags are an attempt to mitigate this problem. Bueda addresses this problem by presenting a new solution in the form of an API that can be used by developers to get clean information from noisy tags. Bueda provides actionable information that enables targeted advertising, content recommendation, search engine optimization and semantic search, amongst other things. Bueda is currently in private beta.
