The Talis Platform: A Generic Infrastructure for Next Generation Web Applications
This event took place on Wednesday 13 February 2008 at 11:30

 
Ian Davis Talis

The Talis Platform provides a generic infrastructure for building data-rich Web and Semantic Web applications. By taking care of the "heavy lifting" associated with data management and storage, developers are freed up to concentrate on building applications using the Platform's APIs and services. In this presentation I will outline the problems the Platform is attempting to solve, describe the principles on which our approach is based, and ground these in trends such as "Software as a Service". The capabilities of the Platform will be illustrated through demos of Platform services for mashing up heterogeneous data and providing faceted querying over data sets. I'll wrap up the talk by describing how members of the audience can use the Platform to support their own applications, and help shape its future development.

Knowledge Management is...


Knowledge Management
Creating learning organisations hinges on managing knowledge at many levels. Knowledge can be provided by individuals or it can be created as a collective effort of a group working together towards a common goal, it can be situated as "war stories" or it can be generalised as guidelines, it can be described informally as comments in a natural language, pictures and technical drawings or it can be formalised as mathematical formulae and rules, it can be expressed explicitly or it can be tacit, embedded in the work product. The recipient of knowledge - the learner - can be an individual or a work group, professionals, university students, schoolchildren or informal communities of interest.
Our aim is to capture, analyse and organise knowledge, regardless of its origin and form and make it available to the learner when needed presented with the necessary context and in a form supporting the learning processes.
