I’m currently attending the Semantic Technologies Conference and thought I’d share some of my experiences. The conference has been quite interesting, as it has provided a point of view which I do not get large exposure to…specifically what’s happening in industry in the Semantic Web space. It’s great to see that there are large industrial […]
Well I’ve been attending the WWW 2007 conference the past week; I do not blog that often, but I figured that since I’ve travelled all this way, I should share some of my experiences. IMHO, the conference has been, yet again, a large success. The talks have been very interesting and when there are no […]
So the past two days have been very busy. Lots of talks went on. The IBM folks’ A-Box summary talk went well, and was nominated for Best Paper Award. The paper on SPARQL semantics is also nominated for Best Papaer Award. Yours truly gave two talks. One on Tuesday (A […]

Alot has happened over the past two days here at ISWC2006. Here’s a short recap of some of the highlights.
Taowei gave his talk yesterday, and it went off very well; by far it was the best in the session…good job Taowei! The audience received it well and asked some interesting questions; it was nice to […]
Hi guys,
This is also my first post. Athens is a nice place and there are some good restaurants (and bars) in downtown. I can see why Vlatko likes here.
Today (Nov 7) is the first day of main conference and we started with Keynote talk 1 by Tom Gruber: “Where the social web meets […]
Most of us sat in the SWUI workshop today. There were a lot of posters/demo and discussions. Tim demoed the Timulator.. err.. Tabulator, a generic browser of RDF data. It incorporates SPARQL query on a multiple-select then query interfaces. The results of queries can be displayed on a calendar or a map (if they […]
Hi All,
This is my first post!
Yesterday was quite a busy day: I was at the Semantic web and policy workshop (SWPW), where I gave a talk about recent work we did on WS-Policy, and also took part in a mini-panel discussion.
The talk went pretty well, with some interesting discussion afterwards. My paper was about […]
Hello from Athens, GA. I’m here attending ISWC 2006; today was the start of the various workshops preceding the conference. It was really fun as I got to see all of my old UGA colleagues, as well as many other friends in the community. Today I hopped around a few of the workshops, catching a […]
Sat in the Semantic Web Policy Workshop today, where Vlad had a presentation. There are a couple of papers speaking of constrained natural language as a device to allow (computer savvy) people to author policies. One paper claimed that prior to this GUI/CNL approach, no one other than the policy buffs can write a policy […]
