tinyTiM is a Topic Maps API (TMAPI) conformant Topic Maps engine written in Java with a small overhead and minimal runtime dependencies.

Simal is a set of open source tools for building project catalogues from RDF/XML files. Simal also provides a web application for the creation and management of RDF/XML project descriptors and ... [More] catalogues built from them. The project is very young at this time. As such, we welcome input into the requirements and design of the initial prototype system. [Less]

The aim of this research framework is to allow a user to analyze, modify and transform Java source code according to defined semantic rules. Source code is supposed to be transformed into semantic ... [More] model (RDF, OWL), then it is supposed to be analyzed using semantic tools, the model may be modified and after that source code for modified semantic model is supposed to be generated. Possibility of inter-language transformations will be analyzed in this project. [Less]

Cwm (pronounced coom) is a general-purpose data processor for the semantic web, somewhat like sed, awk, etc. for text files or XSLT for XML. It is a forward chaining reasoner which can be used for ... [More] querying, checking, transforming and filtering information. Its core language is RDF, extended to include rules, and it uses RDF/XML or RDF/N3 serializations as required. Cwm is written in python; it is part of SWAP, a Semantic Web Application Platform. It is open source under the W3C software license. [Less]

Unified Cloud Interface Project Unified Cloud Computing is an attempt to create an open and standardized cloud interface for the unification of various cloud api's. A singular programmatic point of ... [More] contact that can encompass the entire infrastructure stack as well as emerging cloud centric technologies all through a unified interface. One of the key drivers of the unified cloud interface is to create an api about other api's. A singular programmatic point of contact that can encompass the entire infrastructure stack as well as emerging cloud centric technologies all through a unified interface. In this vision for a unified cloud interface the use of the resource description framework (RDF) is an ideal method to describe a semantic cloud data model (taxonomy & ontology). The benefit to an RDF based ontology languages is they act as general method for the conceptual description or modeling of information that is implemented by web resources. These web resources could just as easily be "cloud resources" or API's. This approach may also allow us to easily take an RDF -based cloud data model and use it within other ontology languages or web services making it both platform and vendor agnostic. Using this approach we're not so much defining how, but instead describing what. See The draft UCI Requirements (In development) Working with OWL Draft OWL Ontology [Less]

Framework for qualifying knowledge acquisition and inquiry by/over/from the semantic web.

Genius + Eye Candy = Semantic Flash Boost your Flash/Flex/AIR apps with free data from the Semantic Web! AboutThis project is in incubation state ( no public releases yet ). Please join the ... [More] discussion group to participate: SemanticFlash@Google Groups The basic I/O framework ( RDF-XML ) is working and the original version of this project ( owned by univrz consulting ) is being used in commercial applications. However, for time constraints, we are not releasing anything to the public yet. MissionOur main objective is to bring the power of the Semantic Web to the Flex guys. Not Flex to the Semantic Web guys ( the former implies the latter, anyway ). This means that we will avoid philosophic and overly technical discussions when possible, stick to pragmatism and aim to simplify the UI developer's workflow by providing: High level tools that incorporate the latest standards, conventions and best practices Articles and tutorials on how to use these tools to make your applications look better, work better and provide more value to your users A responsive community that contains a high concentration of talent from both worlds You won't have to understand how the Semantic Web works, just hop in and use what's good for you. This is a grassroots approach to creating Next Generation User Interface culture and increasing the demand for RDF data ( which will most probably impact its availability in a positive way ). We will feed the virtuous cycle from the other end. From the UI. What's in this for me?Well, that depends on who you are. If you are a Flash/Flex developer...then this framework will allow you to Spice up your apps with free, high quality data from the Semantic Web ( yes, it's already here ) Slurp in artist and track data for your new Mp3 player ( from musicbrainz ) Slurp in geographical data for your new map mashup Slurp in ( whatever ) from ( take a look at some of the currently available sources ) Create highly flexible UIs for all sorts heterogeneous data ( your company's assets, for example ) Learn to speak and think in terms of the future Web Discover an excellent alternative to moving your data around as XML docs or RPC calls If you are a Semantic Web developer / researcher...then this framework will allow you to start experimenting with a highly flexible and practical development environment ( Adobe Flex ), with superb graphical and multimedia capabilities. You can then set off to take the Semantic Web browser to a whole new level, explore novel filtering and navigation paradigms for the Giant Global Graph, create dazzling visualizations and mashups for your linked data and ( hopefully ) give us a hand. The Semantic Web community has been working hard on delivering usable Browsers to navigate the web of data. We encourage you to stand on the shoulders on these giants and aim to improve their usability and aesthetics. The following list contains remarkable examples of Semantic Web browsers: Zitgist Data Viewer, Disco, Tabulator, OpenLink's Linked Data Viewer, Marbles, etc ( you can find an extensive list here ). However, we also encourage you to depart from this first generation and explore radical and novel approaches to delivering data ( click here to get your creative juices flowing ). Note: Flash and Flex are now mostly opensource technologies. In fact, a branch of the runtime has been handed to the Mozilla foundation. So... no lock-in FUD, please. And if you are a futurist, then you might be relieved to meet the OpenScreen project Sponsors( want to see your name here? we do!... talk to Aldo ) StrategySimple things should be simple, complex things should be possible What's Simple?Loading, parsing and consuming an RDF document Using RDF data at a script level ( a la E4X ) Using RDF data in the UI This includes binding / collections API integration Aggregating a few RDF documents ( how much is "a few?" ) These are primary goals. We will emphasize in creating services to achieve these tasks using a simple workflow and enforcing best practices whenever possible ( shielding you from the complexity of choice ). What's Complex?Inference & Smushing Rules Provenance Management Consuming non-static sources ( SPARQL endpoints ) Ontological Constraints Read-write RDF SPARQL Update Open, edit, save RDF docs etc... These are secondary goals. The framework should allow you to achieve these tasks by providing the basic building blocks or clear extension points.

A software suite for creating detailed engineering models (process, electrical, instrumentation, civil etc), representing them through diagrams and exchange engineering data. All information models ... [More] are based on open semantic standards like ISO-15926. [Less]

The KiWi system aims to provide a platform for building Semantic Social Software applications. The underlying conviction is that most Social Software systems follow - or could profit from - the wiki ... [More] principles of everyone editing, easy editing, easy linking, versioning, and web-based media. KiWi provides all these core functionalities. Semantic Web technologies in KiWi make the system more flexible and interoperable: it is possible to build and integrate two completely different Social Software applications on top of the same KiWi system instance. Also, KiWi systems can participate as servers in the Linked Open Data cloud. [Less]
