Semantic Technologies at the XML Summer School

I posted before about the joys of the XML Summer School: the learning, the punting, the drinking! Now the Semantic Technologies track has been fleshed out to include:

  • Bob DuCharme giving an overview on the semantic web
  • Leigh Dodds talking about publishing linked data
  • Andy Seabourne talking about SPARQL
  • Duncan Hall talking about creating ontologies

It’s not really XML, I suppose, but it’s certainly a bunch of interesting and timely topics. I particularly hope that we’ll get some public sector people in the room so that we can discuss some of the challenges and opportunities in that area.

Semantics: Not really XML?

Hi Jenny, thanks for the publicity for our semantic technology course. As for the XML, in theory XML-RDF-OWL is all one big happy family :-) See you in September. Cheers, Duncan (*Hull* not Hall BTW)
