  • Obituary Manfred Kossok (1930-1993)
    Obituary Manfred Kossok (1930-1993) FRIEDRICH KATZ* ENRIQUE SEMO** Early in 1993, Manfred Kossok, one of Germany's leading historians of Latin America, died in Leipzig. For most of his life, he taught history at the Karl Marx University of Leipzig in what was the German Democratic Re­ public. Kossok was a student of Walter Markov, the dean of East Germany's historians. Markov, a specialist in the history of the French Revolution, had spent 11 years in a Nazi prison, where the library contained a huge number of books on colonial problems and especially German colonial ventures. This may have been the basis for Markov's interest in colonial problems, which led him to set up a workshop at the University of Leipzig to examine the history of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Kossok be­ came the main Latin Americanist in that group, and after studying with Markov, he went to the University of Cologne to study the colonial his­ tory of Latin America with Richard Konetzke, the dean of German Latin American historians. Refusing an offer to teach at Cologne, Kossok returned to East Ger­ many, where he first wrote a dissertation on the social and economic organization of the Rio de la Plata in the colonial period. He then wrote a second dissertation (Habilitationsschrift) that was published under the title 1m Schatten der heiligen Allianz (In the Shadow of the Holy Alliance, 1964). On the basis of a huge number of unpublished archival sources from Germany, Austria, France, Britain, Spain, and Russia, Kossok pro­ ceeded to analyze the reasons for the failure of the Holy Alliance's efforts to reconquer Spanish America for Spain.

  • Where Is My URI?
    Where is my URI? Andre Valdestilhas1, Tommaso Soru1, Markus Nentwig2, Edgard Marx3, Muhammad Saleem1, and Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo4 1 AKSW Group, University of Leipzig, Germany {valdestilhas,tsoru,saleem}@informatik.uni-leipzig.de 2 Database Group, University of Leipzig, Germany [email protected] 3 Leipzig University of Applied Sciences, Germany [email protected] 4 Data Science Group, Paderborn University, Germany [email protected] Abstract. One of the Semantic Web foundations is the possibility to dereference URIs to let applications negotiate their semantic content. However, this exploitation is often infeasible as the availability of such information depends on the reliability of networks, services, and human factors. Moreover, it has been shown that around 90% of the information published as Linked Open Data is available as data dumps and more than 60% of endpoints are offline. To this end, we propose a Web service called Where is my URI?. Our service aims at indexing URIs and their use in order to let Linked Data consumers find the respective RDF data source, in case such information cannot be retrieved from the URI alone. We rank the corresponding datasets by following the rationale upon which a dataset contributes to the definition of a URI proportionally to the number of literals. We finally describe potential use-cases of applications that can immediately benefit from our simple yet useful service. Keywords: Link Discovery; Linked Data; Endpoints; URI; Dereferencing 1 Introduction In the Web of Data, applications such as Link Discovery or Data Integration frameworks need to know where a specific URI is located.
