Ok, very short post because this workshop is a) packed, standing room only so no opportunity to take notes and b) a little outside my area of interested being very much focused (lots of suits in the room!)
The panel predicts the emergence of a new network not of content producers but of content distributors.

Having registered and had breakfast, I’m in my first workshop of the day.
Jonathan Hare, Resilient
An open services archictecture. needs to be freely licenced, hostable, extendable and be capable of supporting a emergent ecosystem.
The web contains plenty of open content, but islands of authentication. Authentication needs to be first order in next generation architecture that is […]

First up, some grub at The Last Resort Grill with a party of semwebbers including Guus Schreiber and Fabio Ciravegna then on to the nearby Transmetropolitan. A good night was had by all with plenty […]
ReConRank: A Scalable Ranking Method for Semantic Web Data with Context (pdf) Aidan Hogen, Andreas Harth, Stefan Decker
This paper presents a way of transforming the results of a text query over a set of indexed RDF data into a directed graph and making it suitable for ordering using PageRank-like relevancy ranking. The cool thing here […]

Interesting idea as OWL provides a very rich schema definition language such as hierarchies/memberships/restrictions etc.
Proposes a notion of extended OWL Knowledge bases where […]
Day one of ISWC2006 and we’re in the Scalable Semantic Web Knowledge Base Systems (SSWS 2006) workshop.
The workshop format means that a lot of information is compressed into a relatively short time, so I’ve only managed to digest selected bits so far and jot down a few rough thoughts about some of the presentations for […]
