Sessions
SESSION 1: we brainstorm in the plenary and the split into two subgroups addressing TOP10 and community issues
SESSION 2: from 4:30-5:30 in the two groups, then plenary presentation
NEXT STEPS (?)
- reporting on public-lod?
- gathering feedback from the larger LOD community
- maybe move the consolidated TOP10 list to linkeddata.org (freeze it for now)
1. Brainstorming
1.1 Topics
- Privacy (addressing the problem of increasing data availability about persons)
- Multilingual datasets
- Synchronizing Datasets and Links
- Creating and maintaining links
- Evaluation, metrics, benchmarks
- Trust (measures, data provenance)
- tools to generate linked data, computer aided, default mapping, then refine
- schema-level mappings
- long-term goal: fusion
- design methodology for creating linked data
- licensing/IPR issues (legal and social implications)
- exploring vocabulary creation and usage
- linking-aware data management
- user interface/interaction and usability
- visualising linked data
- Internet of Things (devices, sensors)
- Ways to search for URIs (not only keyword based), for example for Thesauri
- Multimedia (fragments), addressing and describing parts of media items
- using NLP for extracting links
- using natural language interfaces
- social impact
- economic values and impact
- community/Web-based schema creation and maintaince
- history, logs, change sets, temporal tracking
1.2 Communities
- database community (dataspaces, distributed databases)
- Web engineering (focusing on applications)
- natural language technology
- multimedia/hypermedia (annotation, )
- CC, legal informatics school
- HCI
- REST
- application/domain-specific (business, bio, medicine, geo-info)
- Web application developers
- ontology
- knowledge management / KR
- machine learning
- information retrieval
Expected Outcomes
- from 1.1 a TOP10 list of research issues, see TOP10 list
- from 1.2 a liaisons/community cooperation list, see communities sub page
