Related Work in the Three Flagship Scenarios

This section contains a summary of the related work cited in the original use cases that were used to create the three flagship scenarios.

News Aggregator

  1. Use_Case_Retweets
    1. An excellent discussion of the issues with retweeting and the introduction of retweet functionality can be read in a blog post by Evan Williams: Why Retweet works the way it does
  2. Use_Case_Provenance_in_Blogosphere
    1. The SIOC project has developed a vocabulary for representing posts. This vocabulary is often used together with FOAF (that represent information about the physical person related to a sioc:User, e.g. its name, lastname, phone, social network, etc.) and SKOS, used mainly to represent topics and taxonomy relationships between these topics.
  3. Use_Case_Creative_Commons

  5. Use_Case_Attribution_for_a_Versioned_Document
    1. None indicated
  6. Use_Case_Identifying_Attribution_And_Associations
    1. [Gil and Ratnakar ISWC02] describe an approach to enable users to express their assessment of complementary and contradictory sources of information. As the user considers information from different sources relevant to their purpose, they can view the ratings that other users assigned to the entities involved, and use those ratings to assess the information at hand. Sources were assigned a reliability rating, and individual sources could be selected to express the criteria used to accept or dismiss information. The user could also assign credibility ratings based on other information available.

Business Contract

  1. Use_Case_Fulfilling_Contractual_Obligations
    1. There is work across electronic records, e-notbooks, LIMS and asset management systems, workflow, e-Science, and semantic web commuities that address parts of this scenario. I've drawn from experience as part of the Collaborative Electronic Notebook Systems Association (censa.org, 1998-2008) where many requirements for documentation of scientific research and analyical sample processing in the Chemical and Pharmaceutical industries were discussed in the context of FDA regulatons, patent policies, and rules of legal evidence.
  2. Use_Case_Evidence_for_Engineering_Design
    1. This is (very loosely) based on discussion of provenance in engineering design by Alex Ball (see http://wiki.esi.ac.uk/UseCasesForProvenanceWorkshop).

    1. Working examples by means of RDF Reification can be found here: DC-09 conference article
  6. Use_Case_Linked_Data_Timeliness
    1. [Hartig and Zhao SWPM09] describe an approach to develop a timeliness assessment method for Web data.

  3. Simple Trustworthiness Assessment
    1. Hartig ESWC09 describes tSPARQL which is a trust-aware extension to the query language SPARQL. tSPARQL allows to describe trust requirements in SPARQL queries. Using tSPARQL an application can filter (intermediate) solutions for graph patterns in SPARQL queries based on the trustworthiness of the data from which the solutions originate. The tRDF4Jena library provides a query engine for tSPARQL.
  4. Ignoring Unreliable Data
    1. See WIQA framework on IQ in Linked Data main page.
  5. Answering user queries that require semantically annotated provenance
    1. We are aware of an early prototype where domain-specific provenance is added to OPM, and such semantics-augmented OPM is represented using RDF. This is described in a paper presented at the SWPM'09 workshop (ISWC'09): SWPM'09 paper
    2. Semantic extensions to OPM have also been recently proposed in this paper, presented at the 2009 All Hands Meeting, Oxford, UK.
    3. Additionally, [KDG+08] describes reasoning about semantic properties of datasets in the workflow as part of provenance records. [GGR+09] describes how this is done for the case of data collections.

  8. Provenance at different levels in Cultural Heritage
    1. None indicated
  9. Documenting axiom formulation
    1. The use case is described in terms of the use of semantic web ontologies and data, but its motivation comes from uses of ontologies for engineering problems. Consider for example a system developed to estimate the duration of carrying out specific engineering tasks, such as repairing a damaged road or leveling uneven terrain. Users invariably wanted explanations about where the answers came from in terms of the sources we consulted and the sources that we chose to pursue. They wanted to know whether well-known engineering manuals were consulted, which were given more weight, whether practical experience was considered to refine theoretical estimates, and what authoritative sources were consulted to decide among competing recommendations. In other words, the analysis process that knowledge engineers/developers perform is part of the rationale that needs to be captured in order to justify answers to user queries.
    2. [Gil EKAW 02] describes a tool that enables knowledge base developers to keep track of the knowledge sources and intermediate knowledge fragments that result in a formalized piece of knowledge. The resulting ontology is enhanced with pointers that capture the rationale of its design and development.
