Semantic TurkeyA Firefox Semantic Bookmarking and Annotation ExtensionSemantic Turkey is a platform for Semantic Bookmarking and Ontology Development realized by the ART Research Group at the University of Rome, Tor Vergata By adopting W3C standards for knowledge representation, such as RDF, RDFS ... [More] and OWL, Semantic Turkey turns the popular Web Browser Firefox into a rich and extensible framework for knowledge acquisition, management and exchange. Users can adopt Semantic Turkey to keep track of relevant information from visited web sites and organize collected content according to imported/personally edited ontologies. Domain experts and ontology developers can now build ontologies starting from the very raw source of information which they find on the web, without any need of interconnecting different heterogeneous tools and applications Semantic Turkey is built on top of several different technologies such as Java and Javascript, XUL, XBL, and features a three layered (data, business and interaction models) architecture, exploiting the AJAX paradigm for UI/Business logic communication. By exploiting acclaimed modularization frameworks such as OSGi compliant Apache Felix and the Mozilla extension environment, Semantic Turkey can be easily extended with new plug'n'play applications, embracing the best of both worlds of Knowledge Engineering and Web Browsing. Depending on their needs, extension developers can thus rely on different RDF management libraries, such as Sesame or Jena, as well as reuse and integrate functionalities from the full range of extensions in the Firefox Add-ons repository The three Web SitesThis is the project site of Semantic Turkey, containing source code, bug reports etc... If you have stumbled upon this site for the first time, we recommend first to visit Semantic Turkey main site, which contains useful information such as installation requirements, documentation etc... ...and if you don't like manuals, please give at least a look to the requirements section of the main site, to know what you need for running Semantic Turkey! :-) To install Semantic Turkey, visit the Semantic Turkey Firefox extension page to download its xpi (Cross-Platform Installer) package (again, read the requirements section before downloading it).

ST-RangeAnnotatorA Semantic Turkey extension for Semantic AnnotationThe RangeAnnotator extension transforms Semantic Turkey into a true Semantic Annotation System, by replacing the standard annotation mechanism with one producing RangeAnnotations. The application ontology of Semantic Turkey already ... [More] includes the concept of RangeAnnotation, which is defined as "an Annotation including range information" (that is: a location defined by two points, a start point and an end point). This range information can be implemented according to different formats and interpreted accordingly by a dedicated annotation extension. The current RangeAnnotator extension implements the RangeAnnotation concept by adopting Xpointers, thanks to the availability of a dedicatedfirefox library for handling this type of reference. RangeAnnotator can be used to produce semantically annotated corpora of documents and, under these circumstances, the selected collections of documents are expected to remain unchanged. This is the project site of Range Annotator, containing source code, bug reports etc... The main site of Range Annotator is: http://semanticturkey.uniroma2.it/extensions/rangeannotator/ If you have stumbled upon this site for the first time, we recommend first to visit Semantic Turkey main site, describing the main framework which is extended by Range Annotator [Less]
