Links - Semantic Web (Miscellaneous)

Nov 4 2009: Getting active, or maybe reactivating.

This page is just a collection of links so far. The link above for the 'Miscellaneous' subject is to my own modest effort with Semantic Mediawiki.  It's nascent but coming along.

Links - Java

March 29 2009: created

I just noticed that I didn't have a proper links page for Java ... hmmmm.

I think I need to readjust my attitude toward the Enterprise-Level Big Java applications encountered in the yesteryear of flaming youth and get up to date with the open-sourced/open-licensed small java applications of today. One must try to keep up with the times after all ... I like to think of it as being chronologically enhanced. :-)

Links - Web Ontology Language ( OWL2 )

Revised Nov 1 2008: Draft of OWL2 specs.

The recent drafts of the OWL2 specification describe some important changes from OWL1. In a nutshell,

The structural specification of OWL 2 provides the foundation for the implementation of OWL 2 tools such as APIs and reasoners. ... This document also defines the functional-style syntax, which closely follows the structural specification and allows OWL 2 ontologies to be written in a compact form.
