Overview
Semantic MediaWiki is a great tool to build social webtop.
RPI focuses on three interesting directions
- Education: Applications and Tutorials
- Best Practice: Extensions and Templates
- Theory: Formal Semantics, Concept Modeling
RPI Contributions
SMW Extensions:Core Selection
extensions
- MediaWiki
- Help:ParserFunctions
- Help:StringFunctions
- Help:VariablesExtension
- Help:CategoryTree - (optional) tree view of ontology
- Help:LdapAuthentication - (optional) one account for multi-wiki login
- Semantic MediaWiki
installation
- Step 1: download and install MediaWiki -- we currently use mediawiki 1.13.2
- Step 2: download the above extensions -- we current uses smw-ext-core.tar.gz
- Step 3: append LocalSettings.php with extension configuration -- here is an example: LocalSettings.ext.core.php, LocalSettings.ext.ldap-slave.php
RPI Extension
PHP Extensions
- Help:AskMany - query semantic content from both local and other SMW
- Help:SimpleExport - support editing/embedding/exporting text in arbitrary format in MW, and export them with appropriate mime content-type.
- Help:SemanticHistory - encode/export revision history in RDF using PML2 vocabulary.
- Help:TetherlessMap - mashup GoogleMap with SMW query, support layering objects by semantics
- Help:DBLP Import - batch importing DBLP papers in bibtex
- Help:SMW Page Refresh -batch refresh SMW pages
- Help:ArrayExtension - defines an additional set of parser functions that operate on arrays.
Wiki Templates
- Semantic Wiki Best Practice Templates
- Help:SBP FIT - foundation information templates for encode and render semantic annotations
- sbp.rule - support simple rules (e.g. inverse, uncle) on SMW
- OWL Editing and Controlled Natural Language Interface
- Controlled Natural Language Interface
Theory
- semantic wiki concept modeling - formal semantics
RPI Applications
- Group Portal - managing the group
- RPI MAP - in mashup including RPI events, Google Map, user contributed knowledge
- Wine Recommendation Wiki - out mashup with wine ontology
- TAMI policy test-bed - editable semantic transaction log
- Issue Tracker - Relational Modeling
- Semantic Blog - data editing protection
- Semantic Job List -
In Progress
- upcoming works:
- Semantic Wiki Data validator - extension of TW OWL Instance Data Validator, see also Characterizing and Detecting Integrity Issues in OWL Instance Data
- Development Details
Events
- Semantic Wiki Face to Face Meeting at AAAI Spring Sympothium. AAAI-SSS-09: Social Semantic Web: Where Web 2.0 Meets Web 3.0
