KMi Seminars
Semantic Technology for Publication Metadata Management
This event took place on Thursday 29 June 2006 at 14:00

 
Peter Mika Vrije (Free) University, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Publication metadata is widely distributed on the Web across a variety of sources. A number of independent repositories (CiteSeer, DBLP etc.) provide varying qualities of information. Publishers of journals and proceedings also manage and expose metadata in a variety of ways. At the same time individual authors maintain their own private collections of bibliography listing their own works and items of interest.

Large, messy, distributed settings call for Semantic Web technology. In this presentation I try to give an overview of the problems and possible solutions of managing this complexity based on our own work on openacademia.org and work done by various organizations including Ingenta and the Nature Publishing Group.

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.
