Semantic Web Spotlight (15 minutes) Co-organizer, John Hebeler begins his continuing series of short features that focuses on specific components to be considered when developing semantic applications. The series is designed to give 15-20 minute tutorials by building a working component that incrementally contributes to a useful, full-fledged Semantic Web application. This Meetup – outlines the overall solution and looks at data – the raw Semantic Web material. Each successive Meetup incorporates OWL/RDFS ontologies, registries/repositories, SPARQL, triple stores, programming frameworks, ontology alignment, transformation from XML, RDBMS, and cloud constructs, reasoning, rules, and more… The working solution will be publicly available to hold your contributions, comments and discussions at SourceForge and Knoodl. Come to get in on the ground level.
