My Second Post on June 21, 2010 - Dublin Core

I started Dr. Coyle's interesting Semantic Web Applications course for the Summer of 2010 on June 2. He had asked that we create a blog to make weekly posts describing our "explorations in semantic web space - hurdles and insights that help overcome those hurdles." I am now catching up with this request, now that I have a chance...

Last evening, 6 hours before the midnight deadline, I submitted my final version of Assignment 2. In Part B, Dr. Coyle had asked for the following:

• Download and review the Dublin Core (dc:) specification at: http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/

• Use applicable dc: properties to say something about the ontology you created in part A. Note: when you publish your ontology as a URL you will be able to talk about it directly, where the subject will be the URL.

For me, the "Rose Bush" example at the following link was most helpful!

http://www.dublincore.org/documents/usageguide/ ("Using Dublin Core")

In the assignment, we were to do this in N3 (versus RDF) format. So I used the dc properties as follows:

dc:creator "Raymond Sison" .

dc:title "My A2 N3 File" .

dc:description "This is my A2 homework N3 file for Dr. Coyle's Semantic Web class, Summer 2010." .

dc:date: "2010-06-20" .
