You are invited to our departmental research seminar this Thursday 28th
June 2011, in DDH seminar room (212), Drury Lane, Strand Campus at 1pm.
Our speaker this week is Terhi Nurmikko, from the University of
Southampton. The title of her talk is "Linked Data for the ancient
world: Lessons learnt so far".
==========
SUMMARY: The Linked Ancient World Data Institute, held at ISAW at the
University of New York in May 2012, was an opportunity for a small
number of specialist to discuss the potential of Linked Data for the
field of Assyriology and the ancient world in general. This talk will be
an opportunity to share the main points covered at this event, and to
facilitate more discussions on the same topic. Viewed from the
perspective of Web Science, the aim is to illustrate the ways in which a
Linked Data project, co-constituted by technical possibilities and
social requirements, could help enrich our datasets.
