Brian Sletten's Semantic Web Technologies Bootcamp (SEMANTIC-WEB-01-05)
CODE: SEMANTIC-WEB-01-05          DURATION: 5 DAY/S
This exciting Semantic Web Technologies Bootcamp, provides a broad, example-driven introduction to a compelling vision for the future of computing that follows on the success of the Web. You will learn how the technical and business value of Semantic Web technologies is available and useful today behind firewalls as well as on the public Web.

Organisations are struggling with data integration solutions that operate at the wrong level of abstraction or are shackled to legacy systems with no idea of how to modernize incrementally. Their service-oriented architectures decompose business processes into services without the ability to identify and protect the information that flows through these services.

In this Semantic Web course you will learn how the tensions between the business and technical sides of the house can be mediated by adopting Semantic Web technologies that provide information-focused, business-friendly solutions that grow with the organisation and its changing business needs.

LEARN HOW TO:
  • Explain the Web and Web architecture at a deeper level
  • Apply Web and Semantic Web technologies in the Enterprise and make them work together
  • Create good, long-lived logical names (URIs) for information and services
  • Build and consume RESTful services from Java and other languages
  • Implement the Resource Description Framework (RDF)
  • Use popular RDF vocabularies such as Dublin Core, FOAF, DOAP
  • Query RDF and non-RDF datastores with the SPARQL query language
  • Use the Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) and how to represent taxonomies in RDF
  • Model with the Web Ontology Language (OWL)
  • Choose and implement major open source and commercial tools that support Semantic Web technologies, including Mulgara, Sesame, TopBraid Composer and Protege
