Training¤
This section contains the material of the eccenca Corporate Memory training, as trainers present it in class. Each module combines the slides with a written explanation of every slide, so the material also serves for self-study and as a reference after a training.
Draft
This section is a draft. It contains the four theory modules, material for the product-related sessions follows.
Modules¤
-
RDF and Linked Data Foundations
Syntax and semantics, the Semantic Web and Linked Data, the RDF data model and the Turtle syntax.
-
Graph patterns, filters, solution modifiers, query forms, aggregation and updates, with exercises on the product Knowledge Graph.
-
Classes, properties and inference with RDF Schema, and the richer axioms of OWL.
-
Hands-on: from competency questions and a domain description to a formal vocabulary.
