LinkedData

2009-02-13T19:34:23Z

140.147.245.124: /* 02/23 PM Workshop, Attendees 35 */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 commercially exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.

=== Program Outline ===

==== 02/22 8PM pre-preconf drink/planning ====

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. It is open to both organizers and attendees, since the hope is that this line will blur anyhow.

14:30 - 16:30 -- Breakout Sessions
16:30 - 17:00 -- Regroup/Wrap-up/Think about potential breakout topics for folks who want
to continue discussion throughout conf.

=== Possible Afternoon Breakout Session Topics ===

* parsing rdf data
* crawling rdf data
* exploring/visualizing linked data
* publishing linked data [http://www.w3.org/TR/swbp-vocab-pub/ Best Practice Recipes for Publishing RDF Vocabularies] (jphipps?)

140.147.245.124: /* Possible Afternoon Session Topics */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 commercially exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.

=== Program Outline ===

==== 02/22 8PM pre-preconf drink/planning ====

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. It is open to both organizers and attendees, since the hope is that this line will blur anyhow.

We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 commercially exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.

140.147.245.124: /* Possible Afternoon Session Topics */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

Lastly the tutorial will be to provide a collaborative space to explore putting some of the ideas of linked data into practice.

140.147.245.124: /* 02/23 AM Tutorial, Attendees: 48 */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 commercially exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.

=== Program Outline ===

==== 02/22 8PM pre-preconf drink/planning ====

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. It is open to both organizers and attendees, since the hope is that this line will blur anyhow.

Testing

2009-02-10T13:11:22Z

140.147.245.124: do automated builds

[[Category:Patterns]]

=General rule: practice test-first (TDD or BDD) development=

==Specific rule: write your code in such a way that it’s testable==

Look, we all know we should spend the first three weeks writing eight thousand tests to describe every corner of the code. And we all have bosses that will ask, every morning about 10:30am, “So, what do you have that you can show me?”

Not everyone is going to be able to write tests first. That’s not right, it’s not smart, but it’s the way the world works. But at least put in the hooks so someone else can come along and write tests.

Writing tests is one of the easiest ways that a newbie can come along to a project and instantly contribute in a meaningful way. But if you’re constantly calling global variables, depending on live database connections and not providing a way to mock them up, or throwing fatal errors if every subsystem isn’t present no matter the context, then it’s going to be hard to write tests. So hard, in fact, that not only will you not do it, but neither will anyone else.

Having a test suite is essential to growing your developer code base beyond the 1 or 2 person small software development teams found in libraries. A test suite allows your software to grow collaboratively with confidence over time. An automated build application that pulls changes as they are checked in, and runs the test suite is an extremely helpeful safety net as development kicks into high gear.

LinkedData

2009-01-27T17:11:17Z

140.147.245.124: /* Program Outline */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.

== Content, Approach and Schedule ==

The tutorial will be based primarily on material from the [http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/pub/LinkedDataTutorial/ How to Publish Linked Data on the Web] online tutorial, the key resource in the field of Linked Data publishing, supplemented by practical examples to illustrate key issues and give participants hands-on experience of creating Linked Data.

=== Program Outline ===

* Tutorial
** The Web of Data & Linked Data Principles (need a section to introduce the topic and motivate why LDOW useful)
** Busy Developer's Intro to RDF (iand)
** Practical task: describing a book/journal/article (or doing FOAF) with Linked Data
** URIs and conneg
** Vocabulary selection (what lbjay suggested)

* Possible Demos
** take some pre-existing data and convert to rdf for publication as linked data (iand)
** oai-ore
** create a foaf file
** authority data and semweb (corey?)
** registries NSDL (jphipps?)
** RDA (jphipps/corey?)
** <link> and linked-data (dchud?)
** openvocab (iand?)
** libris.kb.se (anders?)
** discovering vocabularies (lbjay)
** skos and rdf/a (demo t4gm.info?)
** short history of semweb sans layer cake
** janglely bits? (rsinger?)
** harvesting linked data

* Breakout Sessions
** Break out into groups or work independently on putting some of the ideas into practice
** Working with RDF in various languages: php, python, ruby, java
** Talk about publishing some dataset you are familiar with as linked data
** Hack linked data support into an existing application you have
** Explore the use of existing vocabularies for library data, or brainstorm about new ones
* Review, Conclusions and Outlook
** Results of breakout sessions
** Linked Data prospects in the year ahead
** Upcoming directions and challenges for linked data in the library/archives space

== Participants ==

* Ed Summers (Library of Congress)
* Mike Giarlo (Library of Congress)
* Jay Luker (Ex Libris)
* Ross Singer (Talis)
* Corey Harper (NYU)
* Ian Davis (Talis)
* Dan Chudnov (hopefully)

== Notes ==

* encourage people to bring data
* pre-packaged examples
* have data on hand for people that don't have some
* be able to work offline if necessary

140.147.245.124: /* Program Outline */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.

== Content, Approach and Schedule ==

The tutorial will be based primarily on material from the [http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/pub/LinkedDataTutorial/ How to Publish Linked Data on the Web] online tutorial, the key resource in the field of Linked Data publishing, supplemented by practical examples to illustrate key issues and give participants hands-on experience of creating Linked Data.

=== Program Outline ===

* Tutorial
** The Web of Data & Linked Data Principles (need a section to introduce the topic and motivate why LDOW useful)
** Busy Developer's Intro to RDF (iand)
** Practical task: describing a book/journal/article (or doing FOAF) with Linked Data
** URIs and conneg
** Vocabulary selection (what lbjay suggested)

* Possible Demos
** oai-ore (mike?)
** authority data and semweb (corey?)
** registries NSDL, RDA (jphipps?)
** unapi & linked data (dchud?)
** openvocab (iand?)
** libris.kb.se (anders?)
** discovering vocabularies (lbjay)
** rdf/a (demo t4gm.info?)

* Breakout Sessions
** Break out into groups or work independently on putting some of the ideas into practice
** Working with RDF in various languages: php, python, ruby, java
** Talk about publishing some dataset you are familiar with as linked data
** Hack linked data support into an existing application you have
** Explore the use of existing vocabularies for library data, or brainstorm about new ones
* Review, Conclusions and Outlook

== Content, Approach and Schedule ==

The tutorial will be based primarily on material from the [http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/pub/LinkedDataTutorial/ How to Publish Linked Data on the Web] online tutorial, the key resource in the field of Linked Data publishing, supplemented by practical examples to illustrate key issues and give participants hands-on experience of creating Linked Data.

140.147.245.124: /* Program Outline */

== Aims and Overview ==

The aim of this tutorial is to provide participants with a detailed conceptual understanding of how to publish Linked Data on the Web, and a gentle introduction to the practical and technical steps that make up the publishing process. In addition the tutorial will cover best practices in topics such as minting URIs for published data sets, vocabulary selection, choosing what RDF data to expose, and interlinking distributed data sets. Specific patterns will be presented for publishing different forms of data set, such as data from static files, relational databases and existing Web APIs. Participants will also be shown how to debug published data.

The second focus of the tutorial will be applications that consume Linked Data from the Web. We will give an overview about existing Linked Data browsers, Web of Data search engines as well as Linked Data Mashups and cover the existing software frameworks that can be used to build applications on top of the Data Web.

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 exploit the Semantic Web by publishing Linked Data.
