SIOC profile for 'sioc-project.org' A SIOC profile describes the structure and contents of a community site (e.g., weblog) in a machine processable form. For more information refer to the <a href="http://rdfs.org/sioc">SIOC project page</a> [Fwd: Mappings between base vocabularies for ExpertFinder] maybe the mail below from ExpertFinder is also interesting for SIOC-dev... or let me formulate it hte other way around: Are there people in SIOC willing to contribute to more formal inter-vocabulary mapping definitions? The below-mentioned is only a starting point. Would be good to get more people involved, also in order to completely and formally describe the opverlaps mentioned at http://esw.w3.org/topic/SIOC/RelatedOntologies cheers and merry christmas, axel -------- Original Message -------- Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2006 18:02:37 +0100 From: Axel Polleres To: expertfinder-dev@lists.foaf-project.org Subject: Mappings between base vocabularies for ExpertFinder Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear all, I started to work on the mappings mentioned in our paper. See http://www.rdfweb.org/topic/ExpertFinder_2fmappings for details. Note that even for the supposedly simple case of mappings between vCard and FOAF, we need surprisingly expressive mappings way beyond OWL or RDFS subclass or subproperty definitions, but even beyond what is expressible in the current version of SPARQL by means of CONSTRUCT statements. Opinions welcome, I think this exercise gives quite valuable insights. When back from vacations, I plan to further work on these mappings, probably, I will provide some additional version in DLVHEX [1] rules, where some of the things we need can be expressed more elegantly in the future, but although being a very flexible framework for rules on top of RDF, DLVHEX cannot yet produce RDF as output. I expect to have this functionality in the future though, just "negotiating" with the developers. cheers &amp; merry christmas, (you may view these first mappings as a "present", feel free to extend/comment over christmas!!! ;-) ) axel p.s.: I'll be off to christmas holidays tonite and back only january 7th. probably without internet connection most of the time... Looks like a nice break, I think I won't miss it too much, the last few months were quite busy! -- Dr. Axel Polleres email: axel@polleres.net url: http://www.polleres.net/ -- Dr. Axel Polleres email: axel@polleres.net url: http://www.polleres.net/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIOC-Dev" group.
