Kurt and I are in the midst of arranging a proposal for an implementation session.  The focus would be a highly interactive session to allow implementers to share their experiences.  Vendors should be able to come and make short (2-3 slides) presentations.

 

Stay tuned for further details….

I am particularly interested to hear
about 'shameless plugs' about R&D technology that could be
applicable in the context of JPL and to a larger extent NASA. However,
my criteria of 'applicability' is somewhat different than
the conventional notion of practical = tool-supported technology that is
simple enough to support agile methodologies.
 
My notion of pragmatism is an approach that addresses two ends of the
SWS spectrum:
- the practically agile side of tool-supported SWS methodologies
- the extremely formal side of theory-grounded SWS methodologies
 
You may like to evaluate the Internet Business Logic tool [1].  It's based on a formal theory [2], and it is end-author friendly (and therefore also developer-friendly).  It is also end-user friendly, in the sense that it can explain its results in English.  (We have found explanations to be particularly important when reasoning over RDF triples [3,4]).
 
I hope this may be useful.            -- Adrian Walker
