Introduction
The Semantic Web is here...
...but difficult take off in the “real world”
Problem : “it is complicated to use it” [1]
Even for researchers/advanced users [2]
No just browsing, also edition ( Wiki -like)

Introducción
Human-Computer Interaction  ↑ Usability
User tasks analysis:
Web: reduced set and clearly defined
Web 2.0, 3.0: wider set, still to define
Action-Object Paradigm
Hierarchical actions menus
Select action (e.g. “Open”) and the object (e.g. “File”)
Reduced usability in heterogeneous object domains

Introduction
Semantic Web
Facilitates data integration
Heterogeneous objects
Look for a more appropriate interaction paradigm…
Object-Action Paradigm
Appropriate for heterogeneous domains
Select object, then from available object actions
Cognitively, easier to organise/identify objects
Semantic Web :
Ontologies organise objects, restrict available actions

Rhizomer
Platform for Semantic Content Management and Human-Semantic Web Interaction
Based on Web 2.0 technologies
Client (AJAX) / Server (REST)
Web 3.0 data model
Semantic metadata store: RDF(OWL) / SPARQL
Generic metadata browsing
HTML + Javascript
Object-Action Interaction Paradigm
Semantic Web Services

Rhizomer
Server part:
REST interface over repository
Jena, Sesame,…
GET : SPARQL end-point
PUT/POST/DELETE : RDF metadata management
Semantic Web Services
OWL-S descriptions
Service Profile: Process, hasInput, hasOutput
REST adapters for
Javascript APIs (e.g. Google Maps), SOAP,…

Rhizomer
Client part:
AJAX (asynchronously send queries and metadata)
RDF/XML ─ XSLT  HTML (browsing)
“ Semantic” forms (edition)
RDF/XML ─ XSLT  FORM ─ Javascript  RDF

Introduction

S5T Project
S5T Spanish research project ( TIN2005-06885 )
Scaleable Semantic personalised Search of Spoken and written contents on the Semantic Web
Application in the Segre media group
Newspaper, TV, radio and web site
Internal use (media house): facilitate content production, history tracking, contextualisation,…
External use (web users): advanced services (e.g. news personalisation, semantic podcasts,…)

S5T Project
Semantic annotation of audiovisual content
voice  text (keywords)  semantic annotations
Rhizomer : user interface for browsing/interacting with content and associated knowledge

S5T Project: query Rhizomer Semantic Content Management System
Queries:
Metadata
Content (transcript)
Words

S5T Project: store
GET  SPARQL endpoint
Metadata store
Jena, Sesame,…
DESCRIBE queries by default. Facilitate:
Browse heterogeneous metadata
Without a priori knowledge
DESCRIBE implementation
Concise Bounded Description + rdfs:labels for all selected resources
Result: RDF/XML

En aquest cas, alguns dels col·lectius de la lluita contra aquests cultius demanen que la Universitat de Lleida rebi una especialització en Agricultura Ecològica .
