Speaking at SemTech 2010

I'll be speaking this year at SemTech 2010. The full list of presentations is available online.

My one-hour talk is Tuesday, June 22, at 5pm. It's part of the Ontology Design and Engineering track, in the Technical-Advanced category, and is entitled "Rapid Prototyping with the Jena Command Line Utilities".

It should be a fun talk that includes demonstrations of how to use the utilities for file conversion (see previous post), RDF file merging, SPARQL queries, and filtering triples. There is also some leave-behind code in the slides so you can write your own Jena inference utility.

I hope to see you there!

Hello, World!

Hello all you semantics-focused technology buffs out there!

I'm Mark Wallace, and I plan use this blog to write about different Semantic Applications I am working on.

In my role as Principal Engineer, Semantic Applications at Modus Operandi, I am continually working with new and fun semantic technologies. Be it RDF/OWL, Triple-stores, Semantic Wikis, or Text Extraction, I am learning more all the time and want to share my experiences in hopes of helping others along with these technologies.

I hope to be posting a new article about every week or two, so check back every so often and see what's cooking!
