			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-861" title="sem-web" src="http://mimblog.de/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/sem-web.jpg" alt="sem-web" width="175" height="172" />Am Freitag fand im Rahmen des <a title="Dresden Future Space" href="http://www.community.dresdner-zukunftsforum.de/dresden_future_space.htm" target="_blank">3. Dresden Future Space</a> das &#8220;SemanticCamp&#8221; in Berlin statt. Und wie bereits so oft tat man sich bei der genauen Definition des Begriffs <strong>Semantik</strong> oder auch <strong>Semantic Web</strong> schwer &#8211; nicht allein wegen der besonderen wissenschaftlichen Schwere einiger Vorträge. <em>Mich inspirierte das SemanticCamp zu einem kurzen knappen Statement über die Entwicklung des Semantic Web in unseren Gefilden!</em></p>
<p><span id="more-857"></span></p>
<p>Während das Semantic Web mehr und mehr im Ausland in Form von <a title="Linked Open Data Cloud" href="http://www4.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/bizer/pub/lod-datasets_2009-03-27.html" target="_blank">Linked Data</a> Einzug (siehe data.gov, BBC, Slideshare) in moderne Informationsarchitekturen hält, wird hierzulande bereits darüber diskutiert wie man mit ausgefeilten Algorithmen nicht nur ein unstrukturiertes Web, sondern auch jeden Haupt- und Nebensatz der Maschine verständlich machen kann. <em>Das soll jetzt aber auf keinen Fall die Vorträge von Dr. Klaus Holthausen und Roy Uhlmann von Qimaya diskreditieren, ich glaube nur das wir an der Reihenfolge der Entwicklung etwas ändern müssen.</em></p>
<p><strong>Meiner Meinung nach müssen wir unseren Content noch gar nicht haarklein zerhackt in Subjekt, Prädikat und Objekt im Web auszeichnen</strong>. Was wir brauchen ist eine sinnvolle Teilmenge an Meta-Informationen im Web (und auf dem Desktop) die nicht zu einem horrenden Arbeitsaufwand führen und die ohnehin schon in einem Gros der Datenbanken strukturiert vorliegen.</p>
<p>Das leichtgewichtige API in Form von HTTP(S) hat sich bereits bewährt um Daten auszutauschen, die benötigten Standards wie RDF liegen schon lange parat und Firmen wie OpenLink und auch Oracle bieten die nötigen Tools an, um große Informationsmengen strukturiert vorzuhalten.</p>
<p>Was wir nun brauchen ist keine technische Innovation, sondern ein <strong>Wandel der Mentalität der großen Content-Anbieter</strong> und nicht zuletzt die Kreativität derer die es schaffen wollen mit den Möglichkeiten Wertschöpfung zu betreiben. Diese Kreativität kann allerdings erst dann genutzt werden wenn wir hierzulande Website-Betreiber davon überzeugen können den ersten Schritt zu tun &#8211; <strong>die Datensilos zu öffnen und diese durch eine gemeinsame Sprache miteinander sprechen zu lassen!</strong></p>
<p>Frei nach Gunter Dueck: &#8220;Man muss verrückte Leute einfach machen lassen&#8230;&#8221; und ihnen dazu die richtigen Werkzeuge in die Hände drücken.</p>

<p><span id="more-826"></span>Nachdem ich meine persönlichen Highlights am vergangenen Donnerstag bereits erwähnt habe, möchte ich hier noch kurz ein Wort zu <strong>Lutz Maichers</strong> <a title="Topic Maps, Lutz Maicher" href="http://aksw.org/Events/2009/LeipzigerSemanticWebDay/files?get=lutz_maicher.pdf" target="_blank">Vortrag</a> zu den Topic Maps, sowie ein paar spannende <strong>takeaways</strong> aufzählen.</p>
<p>Bei Topic Maps handelt es sich um ein abstraktes XML-Modell (aus dem Jahre 1999) mit dem Ontologien zu bestimmten Themen modelliert werden können &#8211; im Gegensatz zu RDF sind Topic Maps in ihren <strong>Möglichkeiten der Modellierung allerdings strikter bzw. konkreter</strong>. Das Datenmodell besteht aus sog. Topics (<strong>jedes Topic hat einen eindeutigen Namen und existiert nur ein einziges mal</strong>) welche über eine Assoziation die, die Beziehung zweier Topics zueinander definiert oder über Occurences miteinander verbunden sind. Auf diesem Weg kann bspw. eine Person mehrere Rollen einnehmen, als Autor eines Buches oder Veranstalter eines Events &#8211; andersrum kann das Buch durch Occurences wiederum auf den Autor &#8211; also das Topic &#8211; verlinken.</p>
<p>Den Vorteil dieses einfachen und strikten Datenmodells haben sich Topic Maps zunutze gemacht und sind damit &#8211; besonders stark in Norwegen &#8211; zu einem pragmatischen Datenmodell (Ableitung von Navigationselementen bzw. gesamter Portale) für Web-Portale geworden. Während Topic Maps in Norwegen weit verbreitet sind &#8211; bspw. beim <a href="http://www.kongehuset.no/" target="_blank">Internetportal der Königsfamilie</a> &#8211; sind sie anderswo noch recht unpopulär. Wer mehr wissen will besucht die Website <a title="Topic Maps Lab" href="http://www.topicmapslab.de" target="_blank">www.topicmapslab.de</a> oder gleich die <a title="TMRA 2009" href="http://www.tmra.de/2009/" target="_blank">Konferenz</a> im November in Leipzig!</p>
<p>Am Ende habe ich mir noch die folgenden Links mit nachhause genommen:</p>
<ul>
<li><a title="http://www.slideshare.net/rumito/virtuoso-universal-server-overview-presentation" href="http://www.slideshare.net/rumito/virtuoso-universal-server-overview-presentation" target="_blank">Sebastian Hellmann über den Virtuoso Universal Server</a></li>
<li>Das Projekt <a title="triplify.org" href="http://triplify.org/Overview" target="_blank">triplify</a> &#8211; wandelt relationale Datenbanken in RDF um</li>
</ul>

<p>Already posted this session in my <a title="Intro to Mahout" href="http://mimblog.de/2008/11/10/intro-to-mahout/" target="_blank">recent Breakfast Links</a>. A nice presentation about what Machine Learning stands for and the approach of Mahout.</p>
<p>* <a title="Apache Solr: Beyond the Box" href="http://us.apachecon.com/c/acus2008/sessions/10" target="_blank">Apache Solr: Beyond the Box</a> (<a title="Chris Hostetter" href="http://people.apache.org/~hossman/" target="_blank">Chris Hostetter</a>)</p>
