Linked Data Vocabulary Management: Infrastructure Support, Data Integration, and Interoperability

Fri, 05 May 2017 06:59:13 +0000

This article discusses the shift in popular approaches to large-scale metadata management and interoperability. These approaches are rooted in Semantic Web technologies, such as the Resource Description Framework (RDF). In the library community, this trend has accelerated since the W3C re-framed many of the enabling technologies in terms of Linked Open Data (LOD). As more and more RDF-based metadata become available, a lack of established best practices for vocabulary development and management is leading to a certain level of vocabulary chaos. This article discusses strategies for vocabulary publishing, discovery, evaluation, and mapping have the potential to change the conversation significantly.

Design an OWL Ontology Project

Sat, 21 Jan 2017 06:46:40 +0000

This document outlines a project originally from the course "Semantic Web Topics" at LeHigh University. Students are asked to work in teams to design an OWL 2 DL ontology (or set of ontologies) for an application domain of their choice – ideally, this domain should be one they know about. Since students are also expected to create a set of instances that demonstrate the use of the ontology, they should also choose a domain that has data they can access. Ontologies must be valid OWL or OWL 2 DL ontologies and should use the rich modeling constructs of OWL as much as possible. A DL reasoner should be used to ensure that classes are satisfiable and that the ontology does not lead to unintended inferences.
