These included a photo exhibition, the University Hour, the commencement speech by U.S. Ambassador Philip D. Murphy, the America Day, the University Mile, and the international conference “Religion and the Marketplace in the United States.” These events even got the attention of the White House. President Obama conveyed his greetings and his appreciation for the James W.C. Pennington Award, established by the HCA and the Faculty of The- ology of Heidelberg University. The HCA activities also attracted students, faculty, and the Heidelberg public alike and significantly contributed to enhancing our knowledge about American history, politics, culture, and society. Once more, the HCA remarkably illustrated its function as a transatlantic bridge builder. Since 1386, Germany’s oldest university has been a magnet for students from all over the world. When the first student from the United States enrolled in 1793, no one could have imagined that Ameri- can students would become an important part of the history of Heidelberg University. In 1931, they bestowed their biggest gift on the Ruperto Carola: The “Neue Universität” was built with funds that Jacob Gould Schurman, U.S. ambassador to Germany in the 1920s, had raised among his wealthy New York acquaintances. Eighty years later, Heidelberg Alumni U.S. contributed significantly to the renova- tion of Heidelberg’s “White House.” A number of them returned to their alma mater during the jubilee festivities and enjoyed a couple of receptions in the HCA’s courtyard. For many of the U.S. alumni, the Heidelberg Center for American Studies has become the face of our university on the other side of the Atlantic. Kindest regards, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Bernhard Eitel, Rector of the University of Heidelberg 5 Preface Dear Friends and Benefactors, Students and Colleagues, At the HCA we have good reason to claim that the last academic year has been an annus mirabilis in the dynamic development and expansion of our center. Thanks to the sustained support of the State of Baden-Württemberg, Heidelberg University, and our generous benefactors, we were able to further institutionalize our multi-disciplinary mission and intensify our cooperation with several faculties and disciplines. Two new “bridge professors,” shared with the Department of Geography and the Faculty of Theology, respectively, were established at the HCA. Ulrike Gerhard was appointed Professor of Geography of North America, Jan Stievermann Professor of the History of Christianity in the United States. Günter Leypoldt, Professor of American Literature und Culture, signed a joint appointment with the HCA, thus following the 2009 decision of Manfred Berg, the Curt Engelhorn Chair of American History. Dietmar Schloss, Professor of American Literature, who has been a “bridge professor” since 2009, our senior lecturer in political science, PD Dr. Martin Thunert, whose position was tenured this year, lectur- ers Dr. Dorothea Fischer-Hornung and Dr. Steven Less have for years given substance to our mission of teaching American Studies at the HCA with a cross-disciplinary perspective and doing justice to the complexity of the object of our research – the United States. Three American guest professors—Ful- bright Prof. Kirsten Fischer, as well as our Ghaemian Scholars in Residence, Prof. Charles Postel and Prof. Patrick Roberts—have also contributed to the HCA’s sparkling intellectual climate. Full-time scholars at the HCA and members of our staff have been dedicated pillars of support: Dr. Wilfried Mausbach, Executive Director of the HCA, Dr. Tobias Endler, Iris Hahn-Santoro, M.A., Dr. Mischa Honeck, Christina Larenz, Anne Lübbers, M.A., Dr. Anja Schüler and Daniel Silliman, M.A. They were assisted

  • 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.
