Lastly the tutorial will be to provide a collaborative space to explore putting some of the ideas of linked data into practice. The idea is that people can split off into groups, or work independently on adding linked data support to an existing application, exploring modeling issues of what vocabularies to use for particular data sets, and brain storming about new vocabularies that may be needed in the library world.
The tutorial will combine presentations by the tutors with demonstrations, interactive sessions, and group discussion. Other than a broad technical understanding of the Web development and Web publishing process, and a basic conceptual understanding of the Semantic Web, there are no pre-requisites for participation in the tutorial, which will be of interest to the full spectrum of code4lib2009 attendees, including researchers, developers, data managers/publishers and those seeking to comercially commercially exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.
== Content, Approach and Schedule = Program Outline ===
The tutorial will be based primarily on material from the [http:==== 02//sites.wiwiss.fu23 8PM pre-berlin.depreconf drink/suhl/bizer/pub/LinkedDataTutorial/ How to Publish Linked Data on the Web] online tutorialplanning (lbjay, the key resource in the field of Linked Data publishingedsu, supplemented by practical examples to illustrate key issues and give participants hands-on experience of creating Linked Data.charper, mjgiarlo, rsinger, iand) ====
=== Program Outline ===Let's keep the drink/planning simple, as in, stick to the Hotel bar/restaurant rather than roving. This is assuming the hotel bar/restaurant provides a practical space for our drinking+planning activities.
