Finding RDF individuals that refer to the same real-world entities but have different URIs is necessary for the efficient use of data across sources. The requirements for such instance-level integration of RDF data are different from both database record linkage and ontology schema matching scenarios. Flexible configuration and reuse of different methods is needed to achieve good performance. Our data integration architecture, called KnoFuss, implements a component-based approach, which allows flexible selection and tuning of methods and takes the ontological schemata into account to improve the reusability of methods.

New Media Systems is...


Our New Media Systems research theme aims to show how new media devices, standards, architectures and concepts can change the nature of learning.

Our work involves the development of short life-cycle working prototypes of innovative technologies or concepts that we believe will influence the future of open learning within a 3-5 year timescale. Each new media concept is built into a working prototype of how the innovation may change a target community. The working prototypes are all available (in some form) from this website.

Our prototypes themselves are not designed solely for traditional Open Learning, but include a remit to show how that innovation can and will change learning at all levels and in all forms; in education, at work and play.
