Presentation at September event for SEMPDX in Portland OR. Covering the latest on structured data markup, Open Graph, Schema.org and data markup for SEO.
For everybody who gets tired of questions like “when is the Semantic Web actually going to happen”, or any other suggestion that the Semantic Web programme is “only vision, no progress”.
Session about the evolution of links from Google's perspective during the years and how to deal with it: Webinar at http://webpromoexperts.com.ua/white-seo/
What is the current status quo of the Semantic Web as first mentioned by Tim Berners Lee in 2001?
Not only 10 blue links can drive you traffic anymore, Google has added many so called Knowlegde cards and panels to answer the specific informational need of their users. Sounds complicated, but it isn’t. If you ask for information, Google will try to answer it within the result pages.
I'll share my research from a theoretical point of view through exploring patents and papers, and actual testing cases in the live indices of Google. Getting your site listed as the source of an Answer Card can result in an increase of CTR as much as 16%. How to get listed? Come join my session and I'll shine some light on the factors that come into play when optimizing for Google's Knowledge graph.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is about about analysing websites, measuring them and improving them empirically and iteratively.
Websites can be visualized and measured using the Graph Theory where nodes are webpages and internal links, directed edges.
This presentation explains the process to parameterize and compare websites based on their network of internal connections.
The technologies involved include web crawling spiders, Gephi, igraph on R and the graph database Neo4j.
Slides in English of my talk about Advanced on-page SEO covering topics such as content inventory, architecture of websites and PageRank, anatomy of URLs, visualization of websites and Graph theory, Single Page Applications with AJAX and markup of structured data.

Web Ontologies: Lessons Learned from Conceptual Modeling at ScaleMartin Hepp
Ontologies are a key component of semantic systems of all kinds, including the Semantic Web vision and Linked Open Data initiatives. In this talk, I will summarize work towards a theory of the technical, economical, and cognitive aspects of ontologies in large, distributed settings, and present design patterns and a skeletton methodology for ontology engineering in this environment. The theoretical aspects will be combined by practical examples of challenges and solutions in the context of schema.org.

http://iswc2016.semanticweb.org/pages/program/keynote-bizer.html
Semantic Web technologies, such as Linked Data and Schema.org, are used by a significant number of websites to support the automated processing of their content. In the talk, I will contrast the original vision of the Semantic Web with empirical findings about the adoption of Semantic Web technologies on the Web. The analysis will show areas in which data providers behave as envisioned by the Semantic Web community but will also reveal areas in which real-world adoption patterns strongly deviate. Afterwards, I will discuss the challenges that result from the current adoption situation. To address these challenges, I will exemplify entity reconciliation, vocabulary matching, and data quality assessment techniques which exploit all semantic clues that are provided while being tolerant to noise and lazy data providers.
A non-technical introduction to Linked Data, from a Cultural Heritage organization's perspective. This presentation is from the Provenance Index workshop at the Getty in 2016, with an emphasis on why Linked Data is valuable, as well as how it works in general.

Schema.org Annotations and Web Tables: Underexploited Semantic Nuggets on the...Chris Bizer
Slideset of the keynote talk given by Christian Bizer at the Language Data and Knowledge (LDK 2019) conference in Leipzig, Germany
Abstract of the talk:
Millions of websites have started to annotate data describing products, local business, events, jobs, places, recipes, and reviews within their HTML pages using the schema.org vocabulary. These annotations are widely used by search engines to render rich snippets within search results. Surprisingly, the annotations are hardly used by the research community. In the talk, Christian Bizer investigates the potential of schema.org annotations for being used as training data for tasks such as entity matching, information extraction, and sentiment analysis. Web pages that offer semantic annotations often also contain additional structured data in the form of HTML tables. In the second part of the talk, Christian Bizer discusses the interplay of semantic annotations and web tables for information extraction as well as the general potential of relational HTML tables for complementing knowledge bases such as DBpedia, focusing on the discovery of formerly unknown long tail entities as well as the extraction of n-ary relations.

Get your geek on as we dig into hardcore code implementations of Schema protocol, RDFa, GoodRelations, Facebook Open Graph markup used by leading Internet retailers and content publishers in a variety of competitive industries. How many publishers have intergrated rich snippets? Panelists will demonstrate how rich snippets appearing in search results have impacted traffic, conversions and driven real ROI. Which integrations will end up in the best results? Don’t forget Google needs time for indexing and processing, what are the risks caused by this? What is Google accepting as valid data? Make sure you make the right decision on which snippets you implement and which not.
How to Optimize Your Drupal Site with Structured ContentAcquia
<p>With the advent of real-time marketing technologies and design methodologies like atomic design, web pages are no longer just “pages” – they are collections of modular, dynamic data that can be rearranged according to the context of the user.</p>
<p>To provide optimized user experiences, marketers and publishers need to enrich websites with additional structure (taxonomy and metadata). By adding metadata, content becomes machine-understandable, which leads to better interoperability, SEO, and accessibility.</p>
<p>Structured content is also one of the foundations of real-time personalization; By tagging and describing content with metadata, personalization engines like Acquia Lift can provide more relevant content to individual users.</p>
<p>In this webinar, we will discuss:</p>
<ul>
<li>How to further enrich your Drupal website with structure</li>
<li>Taxonomy best practices for dynamic content and how to configure auto-tagging in your Drupal site</li>
<li>How to leverage Microdata and the schema.org vocabulary to improve SEO through rich results</li>
<li>How to improve the social shareability of your content through the use of Twitter Cards and OpenGraph tags</li>
<li>Why Drupal 8 is the best CMS platform for managing structured content</li>
</ul>
Facebook Open Graph - The Semantic WalletJonathan Laba

This deck covers:
- What Social Means to Developers
- What is the Semantic Web
- Facebook's Evolution into Structured Data
- The Semantic Wallet
- Some Questions
Open Tourism: The importance of enriching your online content with semantic annotations.
This workshop consists of two parts
1. enriching your online content with semantic annotations
Most webmasters are familiar with HTML tags on their pages. Usually, HTML tags tell the browser how to display to humans the information included in the tag. Semantic annotations can be used by webmasters to mark up their pages in ways that can be understood by the major search engines: Google, Microsoft and Yahoo! and machines in general. In this session international & local experts will explain how you can open-up, semantically enrich and promote your tourism related data and initiatives.
Why Should You Add Schema?
In the first part of this presentation an expert from iMinds will explain the potential of annotating and publishing your data with semantic annotations using vocabularies, such as schema.org and elaborate with alternative options.
How To Add semantic annotations To Your Tourism Website?
So now the question becomes, how do you easily add those semantic annotations to you data on the Web? An expert from iMinds will provide hands-on pointers and an overview of existing vocabularies.
2. Barriers and Solutions to Open Tourism Data
In this first public meeting of the Open Tourism working group, a panel of experts in the field of tourism will discuss specific barriers and solutions on opening up tourism data. A key outcome from this session will be a list of essential datasets and a strategy to engage the different actors. The discussion will be facilitated by the project ‘sustainable mobile tourism guides’, iMinds - Thomas More.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

4. Semantic Search Engine Optimization (Semantic SEO) is the
use of techniques from the Semantic Web technology stack
for:
1.sending detailed information about the meaning of your
page content to search engines and other data consumers,
2. in a way that can be easily processed by computers.
Good definition of Semantic SEO: http://bit.ly/kUW0fJ
5. Structured Data = Data organized by a markup language and a
vocabulary. Can be organized and searched by machines.
Linked Data = Publishing structured data so it can be accessed
at a URI
Semantic Web = The web of globally accessible, interlinked
data entities
RDF = Resource Definition Framework. This is a data model
that establishes entity relationships using ‘triples’
Other notable parts of the ‘Semantic Web Technology Stack’
