- Peter P. Yim suggested we engage the Research Data Alliance - an emerging global "Data" effort aimed towards getting researchers around the world to share and use research data without barriers. The purpose of the Research Data Alliance is to accelerate international data-driven innovation and discovery by facilitating research data sharing and exchange, use and re-use, standards harmonization, and discoverability. This will be achieved through the development and adoption of infrastructure, policy, practice, standards, and other deliverables. - ref. http://rd-alliance.org

[07:32] Peter P. Yim: Welcome to the
OpenOntologyRepository: OOR Strategy, Tactics and Action Planning" Discussion Session - Tue 2012_11_20
Key Topic for Discussion: OOR Strategy, Tactics and Action Planning
Session Chair: PeterYim & KenBaclawski
This is a continuation from the "OOR Strategy" session of 2012.11.06. Please refer to proceedings
from that meeting at http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2012_11_06
session page for today: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2012_11_20
Attendees: Peter P. Yim (co-chair), Ken Baclawski (co-chair), Michael Grüninger, Todd Schneider, Mike Dean, FrankOlken.
Proceedings:
[07:33] Peter P. Yim: (current) attendees: Ken Baclawski, Michael Grüninger, Peter P. Yim, Todd Schneider
[07:33] Michael Grüninger: Today is the start of the Toronto Ontology Festival (TOFFEE 2012)
featuring three seminars by Oliver Kutz
[07:53] Frank Olken: @MichaelGruninger Is there a web page for Toronto Ontology Festival (TOFFEE
2012)? Will papers / slides / videos be posted to web? ... Michael Grüninger: the event is informal,
but papers will be posted on the web (later)
[07:44] Frank Olken: == speaking of talks at ISWC last week.
[07:37] Ken Baclawski: There is a possibility that SAP would be interested in helping to develop the
OOR in connection with OData. It will be a few weeks before I find out whether this is more than
just a possibility. It will involve speaking more with the SAP representatives on the OData TC.
[07:39] Frank Olken: Ken, SAP would participate via its labs in Germany, US, or Korea?
[07:39] Frank Olken: Ken said SAP Germany.
[07:43] Todd Schneider: Natural ontology?
[07:43] Frank Olken: Very interesting talk: The Not-So-Easy Task of Computing Class Subsumptions in
OWL RL (spotlight) Markus Kroetzsch. Markus made the point that inference about T-boxes sometimes
requires consideration of the A-box information.
[07:45] Frank Olken: Papers from International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC) are located on the
program page, e.g., http://iswc2012.semanticweb.org/research-papers
[07:46] Frank Olken: Some of the workshops at ISWC posted their papers to CEUR, e.g. Workshop on
Consuming Linked Data at http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-905/
[07:47] Frank Olken: The main site for CEUR (a list of proceedings) is: http://ceur-ws.org/
[07:47] Frank Olken: Next year ISWC will be located in Sydney, Australia.
[07:49] Frank Olken: IOS Press was selling FOIS proceedings and also STIDS proceedings. (Very
expensive).
[07:50] Frank Olken: Also, Enrico Motta (Italy) was demoing a system for analyzing and visualizing
social networks related to citation networks.
[07:53] Michael Grüninger: Ontology Matching uses the testing environment from the SEALS project
(Semantic Evaluation at Large Scale) http://www.seals-project.eu
[07:59] Todd Schneider: If OOR supports patterns, will that require a more sophisticated
classification' mechanism? In particular, how will search/find capabilities be impacted?
[08:02] Ken Baclawski: One unanswered question about patterns is whether they just ontologies or they
are a different concept. In either case, it would be useful to examine the existing use cases
(especially search) to determine whether they impact the use case. There could also be new use
cases.
[07:54] Frank Olken: Some of the talks at ISWC (keynotes?) were videotaped and will be posted
(somewhere) on the web.
[08:34] Mike Dean: Semantic Web conference/dogfood ontology is at http://data.semanticweb.org
[07:58] Peter: == another opportunity: building on the US federal initiatives and support toward
Data - bigdata, research-data, etc.
[08:02] Peter P. Yim: DWF (Data Web Forum) is evolving into the Research Data Alliance -
http://rd-alliance.org - suggest we engage them - their US effort is championed by Fran Berman at
RPI (and she is receptive to the collaboration)
[08:08] Frank Olken: Peter: RDA NSF program officer: Bob Chadduck (Bob is receptive to working with
us too)
[07:59] Frank Olken: Research Data Alliance http://rd-alliance.org/
[08:00] Frank Olken: the coming RDA Launch and Plenary Meeting in Gothenburg on March 18-20 2013.
[08:06] Frank Olken: NSF-Supported Research Data Alliance/U.S. Collaborates with International
Partners to Accelerate Data Sharing http://news.rpi.edu/update.do?artcenterkey=3102
[08:06] Frank Olken: The international launch and first plenary of the RDA will be held in
Gothenburg, Sweden, in March of 2013.
[08:10] Frank Olken: Research Data Alliance October 1-3, 2012 Westin Arlington Gateway meeting agenda
and slides http://d2i.indiana.edu/data2012/ResearchDataAlliance
[08:12] Peter P. Yim: == back to our main discussion: ref.
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OOR/ConferenceCall_2012_11_20#nid3IG3
[08:12] Peter P. Yim: Focused discussion on the tactics and action plans that will help put the recently
refined OOR Strategy in place (3IG2) explore how we might possibly leverage (3IG3) (i) the upcoming
Ontology Summit 2013, (3IG4) (ii) the OntologyBasedStandards initiative, and (3IG5) (iii) IAOA, ... to
provide synergies for all. (3IG6)
[08:15] Michael Grüninger: One possible topic might be the area around data curation and ontology
quality
[08:15] Peter P. Yim: see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit/Suggestions
[08:23] Ken Baclawski: Continuing with Michael's suggestion, it would be good to include not only
data curation and ontology quality but also big data. More precisely, the motivation for curation
and quality is to support big data. This would tie it in with a number of the suggestions as well as
with some recent important topics.
[08:24] Peter P. Yim: Peter / Michael: consolidate various existing Ontology-Standards efforts into the
OntologyBasedStandards initiative
[08:24] Frank Olken: Steve Ray (CMU Silicon Valley) is interested in the use of ontologies for Smart
Grid data exchange standards.
[08:25] Michael Grüninger: We can use the ontologies within standards that have already been
presented in earlier Ontolog sessions as candidates for the Content track within OOR. The idea will
be that all of these ontologies will appear in some OOR instance
[08:30] Peter P. Yim: think: ontology for research & conference papers
[08:31] Peter P. Yim: Ken / Peter / Michael: IAOA would be in a great position to take leadership and
make it a mandate
[08:33] Peter P. Yim: == next meeting:
[08:33] Peter P. Yim: no OOR meeting on Tue Nov-27
[08:35] Peter P. Yim: next OOR meeting will be on Tue 2012.12.04 - 1.5-Hrs. starting 7:30am PST /
10:30am EST / 4:30pm CET / 15:30 GMT/UTC ... regular OOR team agenda, plus a continuation of this
strategy/tactics/action-planning discussion
[08:35] Peter P. Yim: by then, we will have more news about Ontology Summit 2013
