Slides of my presentation of the Stanbol incubation proposal at Apache, http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/StanbolProposal

1. STANBOL code comes out of the EC-funded IKS project
IKS - Interactive Knowledge Stack for Semantic Content Management Systems
Apache STANBOL
The project formally known as Apache FOO
ApacheCon Atlanta - November 2010
Semantic extensions for CMS

Senior Developer, Day Software/Adobe (www.day.com)
Member and Director, Apache Software Foundation
NOT
a semantic
guru!
not even
incubating
yet ;-)

3. IKS - revolutionary semantic CMS stack?
Picture: pschubert on morguefile.com
rocket
science?
maybe
just 4
layers?

4. Complexity?
Existing
CMS
RESTful
interface
IKS FISE semantic engine
plugins infrastructure
stanbol.FISE - RESTful semantic engine
Register content item
Get/update semantic view
Execute query

5. Existing
CMS
RESTful
interface
IKS semantic engine
infrastructure
stanbol.FISE semantic engine vision
Register content item
Get/update semantic view
Execute query

Semantic
Plugins
API
RESTful interface
Engine Framework
Basic Plugins
Later:
Semantic Plugins
Rocket Science...
no rocket
science
(yet)

6. stanbol.FISE: semantic images similarity
Pictures by myself, for once
More on dev.day.com: http://x42.ch/03.00.01
POST both images to FISE (runs alongside your CMS)
Semantic Engines «see» objects (car, house, boat etc.)
Semantic metadata: rich links between content objects.
Researchers plug in better semantic engines.
describe
those on
the phone!
maybe, tomorrow ;-)
