The Semantic Web: The Inside Story
OVERVIEW: In this talk I look at the Semantic Web idea of adding knowledge to the Web in ways compatible with machine processing. Emerging in the late 90s, and growing since then,the languages , usage and uptake of semantic technologies has been increasing. I'll discuss the genesis of this idea, some key steps in its history, and current usage. I also proposes challenges: Having far surpassed the original vision, how do we continue to use and grow the semantic web? -
The Semantic Web - An Overview
Find out what the Semantic Web is all about and how it might be structured. How can we make computers smarter so we can get the information we need in context?

MarkLogic Semantics: When RDF Alone is Not Enough
Stephen Buxton, Product Manager for Search and Semantics at MarkLogic, gives an overview of Semantics support in MarkLogic - RDF, SPARQL, and inference. Then he shows how you get more power and agility than just a Triple Store can provide by using the Semantics of Documents and the Semantics of Data. After this talk, you'll never look at a triple the same way again. Thomas Kelly, Director of Cognizant's Enterprise Infrastructure Management, will join Stephen to discuss data modeling. -
Using DBPedia
A brief video on DBPedia and SparQL. Demonstrates how to query DBPedia for useful/interesting questions.
The SPARQL query demonstrated in the video:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PREFIX dbpedia0: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
PREFIX dbpedia2: <http://dbpedia.org/property/>
SELECT ?body ?magnitude WHERE {
?body a dbpedia0:CelestialBody.
?body dbpedia2:appmagV ?magnitude.
FILTER (?magnitude < 6)
}
ORDER BY ?magnitude
-----------------------------------------------------------

Virtuoso RDF Views over RDBMS Data Sources -- Part 1
Demonstrates the use of an HTML based Wizard for generating & deploying RDF based Linked Data from a relational database. -
Virtuoso RDF Views over RDBMS Data Sources -- Part 2
Demonstrates the powerful record navigation that the RDF graph model accords, courtesy of HTTP URIs as keys for RDBMS table records. -
Quantum Consciousness. The Emperor's New Mind - Sir Roger Penrose .
QUANTUM SYNAPSE .
Sir Roger Penrose . The Emperor's New Mind: Concerning Computers, Minds and The Laws of Physics is a 1989 book by mathematical physicist Sir Roger Penrose. Penrose presents the argument that human consciousness is non-algorithmic, and thus is not capable of being modeled by a conventional Turing machine-type of digital computer. Penrose hypothesizes that quantum mechanics plays an essential role in the understanding of human consciousness. The collapse of the quantum wavefunction is seen as playing an important role in brain function. The majority of the book is spent reviewing, for the scientifically minded layreader, a plethora of interrelated subjects such as Newtonian physics, special and general relativity, the philosophy and limitations of mathematics, quantum physics, cosmology, and the nature of time. Penrose intermittently describes how each of these bears on his developing theme: that consciousness is not "algorithmic". Only the later portions of the book address the thesis directly. Penrose states that his ideas on the nature of consciousness are speculative, and his thesis is considered erroneous by experts in the fields of philosophy, computer science, and robotics. Following the publication of this book, Penrose began to collaborate with Stuart Hameroff on a biological analog to quantum computation involving microtubules, which became the foundation for his subsequent book, Shadows of the Mind: A Search for the Missing Science of Consciousness.
