SemanticWeb for BIBLIMOS
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the BIBLIMOS project, which aims to address the Western Saharan culture and history, by considering both local ancient Arabic manuscripts and European colonial archives. We describe the project’s context and objectives before focusing on ancient Mauritanian manuscripts, the content of which covers many scientific fields. We assess the current state of such ancient manuscripts’ digital processing and we analyse what the semantic web can bring for their use by scholars, from North and South: the ability for applications to operate jointly on several distributed and heterogeneous sources of digitized manuscripts and other kinds of archives, to support collaborative reflection.

متن کاملSemanticWeb Basics in Logical Consideration
In this paper we study the operation of incremental data extraction from declarative knowledge bases and the problem of decomposability of data in such KBs, by viewing them as first-order logical theories. The operation of incremental data extraction is closely connected with query reformulation in information retrieval and data integration, while the decomposability problem is important in the...
متن کاملStepwise Debugging of Description-Logic Programs
Description-logic programs (or DL-programs for short) combine logic programs under the answer-set semantics with description logics for semanticweb reasoning. In order for a wider acceptance of the formalism among semanticweb engineers, it is vital to have adequate tools supporting the program development process. In particular, methods for debugging DL-programs are needed. In this paper, we in...
متن کاملPiazza: mediation and integration infrastructure for Semantic Web data
The SemanticWeb envisions a World Wide Web in which data is described with rich semantics and applications can pose complex queries. To this point, researchers have defined new languages for specifying meanings for concepts and developed techniques for reasoning about them, using RDF as the data model. To flourish, the Semantic Web needs to provide interoperability -both between sites with diff...
