The Directorate-General for Translation of the European Commission (DGT) requests comments from the community at large on the Multilingual Electronic Dossier (MED). DGT might request MED import/export functionalities in new products; vendors that intend to offer products to DGT should check that they can map their translation packages to MED. Also, DGT might request the use of MED from its freelance translators; hence, they should look at usability.

The Linked Data Cup awards prizes to the most promising innovation involving linked data. The Linked Data Cup invites scientists and practitioners to submit novel and innovative linked data sets and applications built on linked data technology, but also new insights that can be discovered throug using linked data.
The CODE Project and the LOD2. These two projects provide ingrediences you can use in form of 17.000 Linked Data Sets published at publicdata.eu and a set of online tools to handle, aggregate and visualise them.
Public administrations publish large amounts of structured data…

Free Webinar: Linked Data for the Environmental Sector – Use Cases and Opportunities
Organizations working in the environmental sector most often act as intermediates between politics, economy and citizens. They are growing out of their role as plain content providers. To service the demands of their stakeholders they have to act also as data and tool providers for their respective communities. On June 13 this webinar introduces several good practice examples achieving data governance in using the linked open data paradigms. Together with a basic overview of the possibilities of linked open data you get an appealing picture of the new opportunities which are provided by these…

2nd International Workshop on Ontologies and Conceptual Modeling
There has been a growing interest in the role played by formal ontology, as well as areas such as philosophical logics, cognitive sciences and linguistics, in the development of theoretical foundations for conceptual modeling. In particular, a number of ontological theories such as BWW, DOLCE, GFO and UFO have been successfully applied to the evaluation of conceptual modeling languages and frameworks (e.g., UML, ORM, ER, REA, TROPOS, ARIS, BPMN, RM-ODP, Archimate and OWL), and to the development of engineering tools (e.g., methodological guidelines, modeling profiles, design patterns) that…

2nd OSEMA (Ontology and Semantic Web for Manufacturing) 2012 workshop
Developing innovative and competitive products in the globalized world requires an orchestrated Product Life Cycle Management (PLM). To achieve this, we require more that enterprise policies and good human-based communication channels, appropriate technologies are also mandatory. These technologies should be able to support representing, managing and reusing the PLM knowledge, same as inferring implicit knowledge in large and geographically distributed knowledgebases. Some of the just mentioned requirements, related with knowledge, are considered in Ontology and the Semantic Web framework…

The 11th International Conference on Ontologies, DataBases, and Applications of Semantics (ODBASE 2012)
The conference on Ontologies, DataBases, and Applications of Semantics for Large Scale Information Systems (ODBASE'12) provides a forum on the use of ontologies and data semantics in novel applications. Of particular relevance to ODBASE 2012 are papers that bridge traditional boundaries between disciplines such as databases, networking, mobile systems, artificial intelligence, information retrieval, and computational linguistics. This year, in addition to its traditional focus on the management of semantically-rich information, ODBASE will have special themes on large scale information…

OnToContent 2012 : 8th International Workshop on Ontology Content
Semantics play an increasingly crucial role in large and complex networked information systems. Ontologies, vocabularies, and semantic data all represent information sources valuable to end users and are fundamental resources that support a variety of applications in several domains, e.g., data integration, document management, information retrieval, web engineering, and so on. This workshop focuses on issues related to the creation, publication, and evaluation of content for ontologies, vocabularies, and semantic data. In particular, developing and evaluating the content of ontologies…

European Data Forum 2012
The European Data Forum 2012 is a meeting place for industry, research, policymakers and community initiatives to discuss the challenges of Big Data and the emerging Data Economy and to develop suitable action plans for addressing these challenges. Of special focus for the EDF are Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), since they are driving innovation and competition in many data-driven economic sectors. The range of topics discussed at the European Data Forum ranges from novel data-driven business models (e.g. data clearing houses), and technological innovations (e.g. Linked Data Web) to…
