Digital Enterprise Research Institute  Status www.deriie of the current web  Data contained in millions of documents  Disparate platforms and systems   Wide range of topics (personal blogs, news, etc.) Various types of resources (text, pictures, video, etc.)  Note: Lots of Structured data in Content Management Systems  Problem  Not possible to reuse this data outside the CMS (except RSS)  Not available as unified machine

readable format 3 Source: http://www.doksinet So, here’s our idea of CMS: Digital Enterprise Research Institute www.deriie PROJECT BLOGS DBLP SPARQL endpoint REMOTE DRUPAL SITE SPARQL endpoint Tim . SELECT ?name ?title WHERE { ?person foaf:made ?pub. ?person rdfs:label ?name. ?pub dc:title ?title. FILTER regex(?title, "knowledge", "i") } SPARQL endpoint Figure 3.5: Extended example in a typical Linked Data eco-system 4 Source: http://www.doksinet Approach Digital Enterprise Research Institute  Our Goal  Integrate A www.deriie "any" CMS site to the Web of Data challenging task  Little  Site incentive for users to annotate their data manually owners do not have the resources to convert their data to RDF  Per-site schema: each site is different and its structure cannot be predefined  Solutions  Expose  Use the CMS site structure in a unified format AUTOMATICALLY! Semantic Web standards (RDFa,

SPARQL) 5 Source: http://www.doksinet Approach Digital Enterprise Research Institute  Implementation  Why? in Drupal One of the most popular CMS out there  Modules  What www.deriie to take the burden off the site users our modules allow:  1. Automatic site vocabulary generation  2. Mapping Content Models to existing ontologies  3. Data endpoint for SPARQL querying  4. Lazy loading of external data (data import) 6 Source: http://www.doksinet Pre-Existing work Digital Enterprise Research Institute  “Semantic www.deriie Content Management Systems”  Ontology-based CMS: – Semantic community Web portals (2000) – OntoWebber: Model-Driven Ontology-Based Web Site Management (2001)  Our approach is reverse: from existing CMS structure to ontologies 7 Source: http://www.doksinet The Drupal CMS Digital Enterprise Research Institute www.deriie  Drupal*  Easy to use  Large community  Popular on the Web 

Hundreds of thousands of sites  Modular  Drupal design site workflow  Site administrator: set up the site and install modules they like/need  Site editors: create the content of the site following the schema defined by the site administrator * http://drupal.org/ 8 Source: http://www.doksinet Drupal: Content Construction Kit Digital Enterprise Research Institute  Content  GUI www.deriie Construction Kit (CCK) module for extending the internal schema of a Drupal site  Used on many Drupal sites  Can build new types of pages, known as content types  Can create fields for each content types. Fields can be of various types: plain text fields, dates, email addresses, file uploads, reference to other pages 9 Source: http://www.doksinet Drupal: Content Construction Kit Digital Enterprise Research Institute  Demo www.deriie use case: project blogs site*  Community  Various site content: – People – Organizations – Projects –
