Day 1: RDF, SPARQL and Discussion
• Brief look at RDF and SPARQL• Discussion– What constitutes data worth linking to?– How to find datasets suitable for interlinking? – How to make my dataset worth linking to?– How to encourage others to link to my data?– What is the added value of links? – How to determine the quality of a link?

Discussion: What constitutes data worth linking to?
• Size and coverage (e.g., DBPedia)
• Uniqueness - unique content attracts links (e.g., holdings in library setting)
• Completeness

Discussion: How to encourage others to link to my data?
• Make usage simple.• Provide data in
accessible formats.• Provide
downloadable data dumps
• Use open licence

Discussion: What is the added value of links?
• Enrich web sites with information curated elsewhere
• Provides multi-lingual content• Support resource discovery through authority
files, thesauri, synonym lists, etc.• Exploit additional structure imported from
Linked Data sources into our applications

Day 2: Tools
• Worked in Groups Looking at tools• SILK Framework– A Link Discovery Framework for the Web of Data– http://www4.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/bizer/silk/
• LIMES - http://aksw.org/Projects/limes
• Prefix.cc - http://prefix.cc/
• 4store RDF triple store - http://www.4store.org/

Outcomes
• We learnt about RDF, SPARQL, Triples etc • Workshop documents clear and well prepared• Very useful pointers on SPARQL, triple store
tools, and interlinking datasets• Great to try SILK – should be useful for
subject, place and names interlinking across datasets

Outcomes • Workshop a little ‘uncomfortable’ for some
not already familiar with RDF, SPARQL • Steep learning curve, “very programmery”• Useful to have a separate SPARQL workshop• More time to work as a team• Jindřich was very helpful. Thanks!
