Interlinking Online Communities and Enriching Social Software with the Semant...John Breslin
This document summarizes a presentation about interlinking online communities using Semantic Web technologies. It discusses:
1. The SIOC (Semantically-Interlinked Online Communities) project which aims to semantically connect online discussion sites through a common data model.
2. How SIOC represents the structure and content of communities using RDF properties and classes. Communities can then exchange and query data using common semantics.
3. Tools that export community data into RDF using SIOC, including for WordPress, vBulletin, and phpBB. This allows interlinking users, content, and activities across sites.
Slide From DataEngConf 2015 event.
LinkedIn is the professional profile of record for our 400M+ members globally, but many people don't realize the full potential of their LinkedIn profile – especially on mobile. Adding blogs, photos and other rich content to your profile on a small screen device can get tedious. That's why LinkedIn created Satori, a Hadoop tool that crawls the web and extracts data to discover members' professional content online. Satori uses machine learning techniques and leverages other open source tools like Nutch and Gobblin in order to help match members with relevant content in order to maximize their professional profile. In this talk, Nikolai Avteniev, Sr. Staff Engineer and Agile Software Developer at LinkedIn, will share his experience in building the product and discuss the challenges and opportunities encountered along the way.
The document provides an overview of social semantics and the social semantic web. It discusses how social data on platforms like Facebook and Twitter can be represented semantically using ontologies and vocabularies. This includes representing people with FOAF, relationships with Schema.org, content with SIOC, and behavior with OUBO. Representing social data semantically allows it to be queried, linked across platforms, and analyzed with semantic web technologies. The social semantic web aims to overcome the siloed nature of social data and enable portability of social information.
This document outlines the architecture of a cooperative systems stack for sharing projects, actors, ideas, and resources (PAIR) using linked data and semantic web technologies. It describes layers including a social layer to interface with humans, a linked data web layer, and an open hardware/operating system layer. It also lists example applications and ontologies built on this stack to enable collaboration through a distributed social linked data server.
Social Networks and the Semantic Web: a retrospective of the past 10 yearsPeter Mika
The document summarizes the past 10 years of social networks and the Semantic Web. It discusses how early visions of a decentralized, interoperable Social-Semantic Web did not fully materialize due to social networks consolidating user data into silos. However, work continues through standards bodies to develop vocabularies and building blocks that could still enable a federated social web. It also notes that while online social science is now widespread, challenges remain around access to social data and the ability to generalize findings over time and platforms.
How is the Semantic Web vision unfolding and what does it take for the Web to fully reach its potential and evolve from a Web of Documents to a Web of Data through universal data representation standards.

The open semantic enterprise enterprise data meets web dataGeorg Guentner
Presentation in workshop at the 2nd B2B Software Days (11.04.2013, Vienna), together with Herbert Beilschmidt (Oracle Austria):
The Open Semantic Enterprise.Enterprise Data meets Web Data.
The technologies of the “Web od Data” have reached a degree of maturity and acceptance allowing the productive use in enterprises for the support of their business processes. Though the focus is currently on the adoption and use of Open (Linked) Data, the underlying principles can also be applied to the closed data sources and proprietary data structures usually available in enterprises.
The workshop outlines the conceptual and architectural approaches to open enterprise data sources and interweave them with the Web of Data. It shows concrete application scenarios of an open source “semantic toolset” that can be integrated with enterprise information and content management systems to open data silos, establish a layer of adaptive integrated views of the enterprise information and support decision processes thus paving the way to an “open semantic enterprise”.
The topical semantic toolset for enterprise content integration includes Apache Stanbol (knowledge extraction), Apache Marmotta (Linked Data Platform), the Linked Media Framework (networked knowledge) und VIE (interactive knowledge).
State-of-the-art big data platforms need to process massive quantities of data in batch and in parallel - filtering, transforming and sorting it before loading it into an enterprise data warehouse. In order to realize an Open Semantic Enterprise, a big data platform has to be optimized for acquiring, organizing, and loading unstructured data. Technological approaches such as NoSQL databases and connectors for Apache Hadoop complement big data solutions for the open world of a semantic enterprise.
VIVO is an open-source semantic web application and information model that enables discovery of research across disciplines at institutions. It harvests data from verified sources to create detailed profiles of faculty and researchers. The structured linked data in VIVO allows for relationships and connections between researchers, publications, grants, and more to be visualized. Libraries can play important roles in implementing and supporting VIVO through activities like outreach, training, ontology development, and technical support.
The document discusses two social media sites for academics: Academia.edu and ResearchGate. Academia.edu was launched in 2008 and allows users to share papers, view analytics on paper downloads and profile views, and follow other researchers. ResearchGate was founded in 2008 by physicians and a computer scientist and has over 5 million members. It functions as a social network for scientists, allowing them to share papers, ask and answer questions, find colleagues in their fields, and view profiles of researchers with similar interests. Both sites aim to facilitate collaboration and sharing of research among academic communities.
This document introduces linked data, which was proposed by Tim Berners-Lee in 1998 as a way to connect data on the web through URIs. It discusses how previous data formats focused on documents rather than directly connecting data. Linked data follows four principles: using URIs to name things on the web, making the URIs resolve to web resources that provide information about the thing, and using standards like RDF and HTTP to share and connect information.
The document summarizes key topics from an Enterprise 2.0 workshop, including definitions of knowledge management, knowledge processes in learning organizations, and contrasts between Web 1.0 and 2.0 technologies. Various Web 2.0 tools are also described such as wikis, blogs, forums, social bookmarking, social networking, and RSS feeds. The goal of knowledge management is to transform organizations into learning organizations by creating, acquiring, transferring knowledge and modifying behaviors.
This is an older presentation given in 2009. The goal was to advocate for the adoption of microformats to improve markup, SEO positioning, and modularize web development. The talk was first given at local user groups: Refresh Hampton Roads and the Web Usability and Standards User Group. Later, I gave the workshop to an internal audience: the UI Engineering team and, later, to a UI/UX Future Group
The World Wide Web is booming and radically vibrant due to the well established standards and widely accountable framework which guarantees the interoperability at various levels of the application and the society as a whole. So far, the web has been functioning at the random rate on the basis of the human intervention and some manual processing but the next generation web which the researchers called semantic web, edging for automatic processing and machine-level understanding. The well set notion, Semantic Web would be turn possible if only there exists the further levels of interoperability prevails among the applications and networks. In achieving this interoperability and greater functionality among the applications, the W3C standardization has already released the well defined standards such as RDF/RDF Schema and OWL. Using XML as a tool for semantic interoperability has not achieved anything effective and failed to bring the interconnection at the larger level. This leads to the further inclusion of inference layer at the top of the web architecture and its paves the way for proposing the common design for encoding the ontology representation languages in the data models such as RDF/RDFS. In this research article, we have given the clear implication of semantic web research roots and its ontological background process which may help to augment the sheer understanding of named entities in the web.
The goal of the Semantic Web is
to create a universal medium for the exchange of DATA.
The Data Web envisions the web as a world-wide interlinked structured data.
Linked data for Enterprise Data IntegrationSören Auer
The Web evolves into a Web of Data. In parallel Intranets of large companies will evolve into Data Intranets based on the Linked Data principles. Linked Data has the potential to complement the SOA paradigm with a light-weight, adaptive data integration approach.
This document discusses the evolution of the World Wide Web from Web 1.0 to Web 3.0. Web 1.0 allowed basic one-way interactions, while Web 2.0 introduced user-generated content through blogs and social media. Web 3.0 is described as utilizing semantics to connect data and people through applications built from small, customizable components in the cloud. Key characteristics of Web 3.0 include intelligent search, personalized interactions, behavioral advertising, and information validated by community feedback.
The document discusses the Semantic Web and how it provides a common framework to share and reuse data across applications and organizations. It describes Resource Description Framework (RDF) and how it represents relationships in a simple data structure using graphs. It also discusses Linked Data design principles and standards like RDFa and Microformats that embed semantics into web pages. Finally, it provides examples of how search engines like Google and Yahoo utilize structured data from RDFa and Microformats to enhance search results.
SIOC (Semantically-Interlinked Online Communities) is an ontology for describing social web data and linking between social sites to enable interoperability. It aims to address data silos by allowing social sites to share information through semantic descriptions of users, content, and connections. SIOC has been adopted by over 100 applications and used on hundreds of sites to provide RDF metadata and allow exporting/importing complete representations of social data.
The document discusses how libraries can better integrate their resources into users' workflows in a web-scale discovery environment. It argues that libraries need to syndicate and make their metadata, links, and services available outside of their own systems in places users are already searching and working. This means shortening the distance between users and library resources by mobilizing data at different levels from institutional to network. The goal is to create scale and impact by getting library information into the workflows and environments users are already engaged with.
The document discusses Archives 2.0 and how archives can embrace new technologies and standards to improve access and engagement with users. It describes initiatives like the Archives Hub and AIM25 that aim to locate archives across institutions, save time and resources for users, and promote standards. While embracing new technologies, it cautions that Archives 2.0 must be sustainable, user-focused, and not just for the sake of being fashionable or a technical shortcut.
The document discusses the promise of web science as an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the world wide web. It outlines how perspectives of the web have evolved from a database to a digital library to a cognitive and socio-cognitive space. The need for web science is described to better understand, engineer, and ensure the social benefits of the evolving web. Key aspects of web science include building models of web phenomena through an observatory approach and taking both observational and engineering perspectives.

Data Accessibility and Me: Introducing SIOC, FOAF and the Linked Data WebJohn Breslin
The document discusses the need for data portability across social media services so that users can access all of their data in one place. It proposes using semantic web technologies like FOAF, SIOC, and linked data to connect user profiles and content across different sites and applications. This would allow users to access and reference their data from any service, as well as see all of their information as part of the larger web of linked data. The document outlines some existing initiatives and technologies that could be used to achieve this goal of universal data access and portability.

Microsoft Data Culture Series - Keynote - 27th November 2014Jonathan Woodward
Big data. Small data. All data. You have access to an ever-expanding volume of data inside the walls of your business and out across the web. The potential in data is endless – from predicting election results to preventing the spread of epidemics. But how can you use it to your advantage to help move your business forward?
Drive a Data Culture within your organisation
Keynote include Dave Coplin and Ric Howe
The speaker discusses the semantic web and its potential to make data on the web smarter and more connected. He outlines several approaches to semantics like tagging, statistics, linguistics, semantic web, and artificial intelligence. The semantic web allows data to be self-describing and linked, enabling applications to become more intelligent. The speaker demonstrates a prototype semantic web application called Twine that helps users organize and share information about their interests.
Linked data provides benefits for publishing and sharing research data on the web in a flexible, cost-efficient way without unnecessary copies. It uses the RDF data model and SPARQL query language to represent data as connected triples with URIs. This allows data to be interlinked across sources and queried as a web of data. Initiatives like GO FAIR have incorporated linked data practices like FAIRification to help make data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable according to FAIR principles. The future potential of linked data includes enabling global access to connected knowledge across heterogeneous environments and facilitating smart collaboration.
The document discusses the concepts of linked data, how it can be created and deployed from various data sources, and how it can be exploited. Linked data allows accessing data on the web by reference using HTTP-based URIs and RDF, forming a giant global graph. It can be generated from existing web pages, services, databases and content, and deployed using a linked data server. Exploiting linked data allows discovery, integration and conceptual interaction across silos of heterogeneous data on the web and in enterprises.
This slide deck has been prepared for a workshop on Linked Data Publishing and Semantic Processing using the Redlink platform (http://redlink.co). The workshop delivered at the Department of Information Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics at Università degli Studi dell'Aquila aimed at providing a general understanding of Semantic Web Technologies and how these can be used in real world use cases such as Salzburgerland Tourismus.
A brief introduction has been also included on MICO (Media in Context) a European Union part-funded research project to provide cross-media analysis solutions for online multimedia producers.

This document discusses open data and big data. It defines open data as publicly available data that anyone can access, use and share, while big data refers to large and complex datasets. Open data could grow into big data as more data is published. The document provides an overview of linked open data standards and technologies like RDF and SPARQL that help structure and connect open datasets. It emphasizes the importance of not just publishing data but also developing applications that make use of open data through hackathons and other initiatives.
Slide presented during the Internet Governance Forum alia It2011 - Trento 11. November
A overview about likend data, data portals, data hubs, with a community view and the possible opportunity in the Trentino research system.
Research institutions, governments and sometimes even the industry are promoting a way to publish data that conforms to principles of openness such as being Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable.
These principles can be adhered to in a multitude of ways: Linked Open Data is one of them; it is favoured by scientific communities, but its adoption is not limited to research contexts. In this talk I will provide an account of how my research projects enjoyed the benefits of being on either side of the FAIR data supply chain.
Similar to Zeine 2011 LinkedIn Use of Information Technology for Global Professional Networking (20)
This document discusses challenges faced by women in medicine and academia. It provides statistics showing fewer women reach higher ranks like full professor compared to men. A study of over 4,500 faculty found women reported lower sense of belonging, self-efficacy for career advancement, and perception of gender equity and family-friendly culture. Another study identified personal factors like marital status and work environment factors like incentives and research partnerships as affecting women's research productivity in academia.
Analysis of external adaptability (agility) as a measure of organizational Effectiveness in Higher Education and recommendation of diagnostic testing based on the performance triangle model
Zeine et al. 2011 Organizational Culture in Higher Education, in Kazeroony, H...Rana ZEINE, MD, PhD, MBA
The organizational culture of higher education institutions was analyzed using a survey. The results showed that behavioral norms associated with passive/defensive and aggressive/defensive cultures were overrepresented, while constructive norms were underrepresented compared to an ideal profile. This indicates a focus on tasks over people and lower-order needs over higher-order needs. Gaps between current and ideal profiles were identified to help target areas for cultural change in higher education institutions.
This study investigated the role of estrogen receptor-beta (ESR2) in regulating cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and prostanoid levels in human placental villous endothelial cells. The researchers found that knocking down ESR2 led to decreased COX-2 mRNA and protein levels as well as diminished prostacyclin and thromboxane concentrations in the cells, both in the presence and absence of estradiol. This suggests that ESR2 mediates COX-2 expression and prostanoid levels in a ligand-independent manner, playing a role in fetoplacental vascular function.

Presence of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts correlates with Microvascular Proliferation which is a Poor Prognostic Factor in Neuroblastoma Tumors
This study analyzed cancer-associated fibroblasts in 60 primary neuroblastoma tumors and a neuroblastoma xenograft model. Cancer-associated fibroblasts were characterized by expression of α-smooth muscle actin but not high-molecular weight caldesmon. High numbers of cancer-associated fibroblasts were associated with Schwannian stroma-poor histology and microvascular proliferation in human tumors. In xenografts with infiltrating Schwann cells, cancer-associated fibroblasts were approximately sevenfold less than controls without Schwann cells, suggesting Schwann cells may prevent fibroblast activation.
This study examined microvascular proliferation (MVP) in neuroblastoma tumors to determine its clinical significance. MVP, including glomeruloid MVP, was significantly associated with poor prognosis in two independent cohorts of neuroblastoma patients. MVP was also significantly associated with the clinically aggressive Schwannian stroma-poor histology of neuroblastomas. These findings provide further evidence that angiogenesis plays an important role in neuroblastoma pathogenesis and behavior, and suggest angiogenesis is regulated differently depending on the amount of Schwannian stroma in the tumor.
This research article examines the combination of ABT-510, a peptide derivative of the natural angiogenic inhibitor thrombospondin-1, and valproic acid (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, as a potential antiangiogenic treatment strategy for high-risk neuroblastoma in children. In vitro, only VPA was able to inhibit neuroblastoma cell proliferation and induce apoptosis, but both ABT-510 and VPA significantly suppressed the growth of neuroblastoma xenografts in mice. Combination therapy more effectively inhibited tumor growth than single agents and achieved total cessation of tumor growth in some mice with large xenografts. The microvascular density and number of abnormal vessels in
This study directly analyzed the infiltration of the central nervous system (CNS) by PKH2-labeled, myelin basic protein (MBP)-reactive CD4+ T cells in mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis. The researchers found that about 45% of CD4+ T cells in the CNS at disease onset were PKH2-labeled cells that had infiltrated from the periphery. Nearly all of these cells in the CNS exhibited a memory/effector phenotype of being CD44high and CD45RBlow and responded to MBP in vitro, indicating antigen recognition promoted their retention in the CNS. In contrast, few PK
1) The study examined CD4+ T cells in the central nervous system (CNS) of mice during experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), both during active disease and remission.
2) Flow cytometry analysis revealed a 30-fold reduction in the number of CD4+ T cells in the CNS of mice in remission compared to those with active EAE.
3) However, the CD4+ T cells that remained in the CNS during remission maintained an activated memory/effector phenotype, suggesting remission is not due to downregulation of T cell function.
This document describes a study examining the effects of T cell vaccination on the immune response in mice protected against experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). The researchers found that vaccination with myelin basic protein (MBP)-reactive T cell lines protected SJL/J mice against EAE induced by rat spinal cord homogenate. Lymph node cells from vaccinated mice showed enhanced proliferative responses to MBP and an encephalitogenic peptide from proteolipid protein, compared to untreated mice. The augmentation of responses was not antigen-specific and also occurred for ovalbumin. This suggests vaccination led to non-specific enhancement of immune activation in peripheral lymphoid tissues.
This study examined the effects of perforin, a pore-forming protein, on oligodendrocytes cultured from SJL mice. Oligodendrocytes were exposed to perforin for up to 2.5 hours and examined using microscopy. The results showed that the majority of oligodendrocytes were killed within 60-90 minutes via pore expansion and membrane disruption. Structural features included cell body swelling, fenestration and fragmentation of membranes and processes, cytoplasmic vacuolation, and breakdown of the nuclear envelope. These patterns of damage resembled those seen in multiple sclerosis lesions. The findings suggest that perforin may play an important role in demyelination in multiple sclerosis.
1. The study examines the mechanism by which gd T cells induce cytotoxicity of human oligodendrocytes, which are relevant to multiple sclerosis.
2. The results show that gd T cells from MS patients utilize both the Fas-mediated and perforin-based pathways to exert cytotoxic effects on oligodendrocytes.
3. Blocking perforin release completely inhibited killing of targets expressing high levels of heat shock proteins, but additional blocking of Fas ligand was required to fully inhibit killing of Fas-expressing targets and fresh oligodendrocytes.
This document summarizes a study examining the presence of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in different subtypes of neuroblastoma tumors. The study found that CAFs, identified by alpha-smooth muscle actin expression, were abundant in schwannian stroma-poor neuroblastoma regions and associated with microvascular proliferation, but were less prevalent in schwannian stroma-rich regions. This suggests CAFs may promote angiogenesis in aggressive, schwannian stroma-poor neuroblastomas.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
