Furthermore, there are several interlinking frameworks that find semantically equivalent geospatial resources in related RDF data sources. However, many existing Linked Open Data sources are currently sparsely interlinked. Also, many RDF generation and interlinking frameworks require a solid knowledge of Semantic Web and Geospatial Semantic Web concepts to successfully deploy them. This article comparatively evaluates features and functionality of the current state-of-the-art geospatial RDF generation tools and interlinking frameworks. This evaluation is specifically performed for cultural heritage researchers and professionals who have limited expertise in computer programming. Hence, a set of criteria has been defined to facilitate the selection of tools and frameworks. -

RESEARCH ARTICLES. SOCIOLOGICAL SCIENCES DOCUMENT – BOOK – SEMANTIC WEB: OLD SCIENCE DOCUMENTATION`S CONTRIBUTION M. Tsvetkova1 DOI: http://doi.org/10.15350/L_26/7/02 Abstract The key focus of the research is the contribution of the founder of the documentation science, Paul Otlet, to the evolution of communication technologies and media. Methods used: systematic-mediological approach to research in book studies, documentology, information and communication sciences, retrospective discourse analysis of documents, studies, monographs. The way in which Otlet presents arguments about the document “book” as the base technology of the universal documentation global network is reviewed chronologically. His critical thinking has been established: by expanding the definition of a “book”, he projects its future transformation in descending order – from The Universal Book of Knowledge (Le Livre universel de la Science) through the “thinking machine” (machine à penser), to its breakdown to Biblions, the smallest building blocks of written knowledge. -

Series ISSN: 2160-4711 LABRA GAYO • ET AL GAYO LABRA Series Editors: Ying Ding, Indiana University Paul Groth, Elsevier Labs Validating RDF Data Jose Emilio Labra Gayo, University of Oviedo Eric Prud’hommeaux, W3C/MIT and Micelio Iovka Boneva, University of Lille Dimitris Kontokostas, University of Leipzig VALIDATING RDF DATA This book describes two technologies for RDF validation: Shape Expressions (ShEx) and Shapes Constraint Language (SHACL), the rationales for their designs, a comparison of the two, and some example applications. RDF and Linked Data have broad applicability across many fields, from aircraft manufacturing to zoology. Requirements for detecting bad data differ across communities, fields, and tasks, but nearly all involve some form of data validation. This book introduces data validation and describes its practical use in day-to-day data exchange. The Semantic Web offers a bold, new take on how to organize, distribute, index, and share data. Using Web addresses (URIs) as identifiers for data elements enables the construction of distributed databases on a global scale. Like the Web, the Semantic Web is heralded as an information revolution, and also like the Web, it is encumbered by data quality issues. The quality of Semantic Web data is compromised by the lack of resources for data curation, for maintenance, and for developing globally applicable data models. At the enterprise scale, these problems have conventional solutions. Master data management provides an enterprise-wide vocabulary, while constraint languages capture and enforce data structures. Filling a need long recognized by Semantic Web users, shapes languages provide models and vocabularies for expressing such structural constraints. -

Article Incidences of problematic cell lines are lower in papers that use RRIDs to identify cell lines BABIC, Zeljana, et al. Abstract The use of misidentified and contaminated cell lines continues to be a problem in biomedical research. Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) should reduce the prevalence of misidentified and contaminated cell lines in the literature by alerting researchers to cell lines that are on the list of problematic cell lines, which is maintained by the International Cell Line Authentication Committee (ICLAC) and the Cellosaurus database. To test this assertion, we text-mined the methods sections of about two million papers in PubMed Central, identifying 305,161 unique cell-line names in 150,459 articles. We estimate that 8.6% of these cell lines were on the list of problematic cell lines, whereas only 3.3% of the cell lines in the 634 papers that included RRIDs were on the problematic list. This suggests that the use of RRIDs is associated with a lower reported use of problematic cell lines. Reference BABIC, Zeljana, et al.

An Ontological Approach for Querying Distributed Heterogeneous Information Systems Under Critical Operational Environments
An Ontological Approach for Querying Distributed Heterogeneous Information Systems Under Critical Operational Environments Atif Khan, John Doucette, and Robin Cohen David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science, University of Waterloo {a78khan,j3doucet,rcohen}@uwaterloo.ca Abstract. In this paper, we propose an information exchange frame- work suited for operating in time-critical environments where diverse heterogeneous sources may be involved. We utilize a request-response type of communication in order to eliminate the need for local collection of distributed information. We then introduce an ontological knowledge representation with a semantic reasoner that operates on an aggregated view of the knowledge sources to generate a response and a semantic proof. A prototype of the system is demonstrated in two example emer- gency health care scenarios, where there is low tolerance for inaccuracy and the use of diverse sources is required, not all of which may be known to the individual generating the request. The system is contrasted with conventional machine learning approaches and existing work in seman- tic data mining (used to infer knowledge in order to provide responses), and is shown to oer theoretical and practical advantages over these conventional techniques. 1 Introduction As electronic information systems become mainstream, society's dependence upon them for knowledge acquisition and distribution has increased. Over the years, the sophistication of these systems has evolved, making them capable of not only storing large amounts of information in diverse formats, but also of reasoning about complex decisions. The increase in technological capabilities has revolutionized the syntactic interoperability of modern information systems, allowing for a heterogeneous mix of systems to exchange a wide spectrum of data in many dierent formats. -
Semantic Resource Adaptation Based on Generic Ontology Models
Semantic Resource Adaptation Based on Generic Ontology Models Bujar Raufi, Florije Ismaili, Jaumin Ajdari, Mexhid Ferati and Xhemal Zenuni Faculty of Contemporary Sciences and Technologies, South East European University, Ilindenska 335, Tetovo, Macedonia Keywords: Semantic Web, Linked Open Data, User Adaptive Software Systems, Adaptive Web-based Systems. Abstract: In recent years, a substantial shift from the web of documents to the paradigm of web of data is witnessed. This is seen from the proliferation of massive semantic repositories such as Linked Open Data. Recommending and adapting resources over these repositories however, still represents a research challenge in the sense of relevant data aggregation, link maintenance, provenance and inference. In this paper, we introduce a model of adaptation based on user activities for performing concept adaptation on large repositories built upon extended generic ontology model for Adaptive Web-Based Systems. The architecture of the model is consisted of user data extraction, user knowledgebase, ontology retrieval and application and a semantic reasoner. All these modules are envisioned to perform specific tasks in order to deliver efficient and relevant resources to the users based on their browsing preferences. Specific challenges in relation to the proposed model are also discussed. 1 INTRODUCTION edge. While PIR is mostly query based, AH is mainly browsing oriented.

Introduction to Linked Data and Its Lifecycle on the Web
Introduction to Linked Data and its Lifecycle on the Web Sören Auer, Jens Lehmann, Axel-Cyrille Ngonga Ngomo, Amrapali Zaveri AKSW, Institut für Informatik, Universität Leipzig, Pf 100920, 04009 Leipzig {lastname}@informatik.uni-leipzig.de http://aksw.org Abstract. With Linked Data, a very pragmatic approach towards achieving the vision of the Semantic Web has gained some traction in the last years. The term Linked Data refers to a set of best practices for publishing and interlinking struc- tured data on the Web. While many standards, methods and technologies devel- oped within by the Semantic Web community are applicable for Linked Data, there are also a number of specific characteristics of Linked Data, which have to be considered. In this article we introduce the main concepts of Linked Data. We present an overview of the Linked Data lifecycle and discuss individual ap- proaches as well as the state-of-the-art with regard to extraction, authoring, link- ing, enrichment as well as quality of Linked Data. We conclude the chapter with a discussion of issues, limitations and further research and development challenges of Linked Data. This article is an updated version of a similar lecture given at Reasoning Web Summer School 2011. 1 Introduction One of the biggest challenges in the area of intelligent information management is the exploitation of the Web as a platform for data and information integration as well as for search and querying. Just as we publish unstructured textual information on the Web as HTML pages and search such information by using keyword-based search engines, we are already able to easily publish structured information, reliably interlink this informa- tion with other data published on the Web and search the resulting data space by using more expressive querying beyond simple keyword searches. -
