Informatik hautnah erleben
(2010)
In vielen Köpfen - sowohl bei Erwachsenen wie auch bei Schülern - geistert der Glaube, dass Informatik die Wissenschaft der "Computerlehre" ist. Schon der berühmte Satz "In der Informatik geht es genauso wenig um Computer wie in der Astronomie um Teleskope", der dem Informatiker Edsger W. Dijkstra (1930 - 2002) zugeschrieben wird, drückt historisch schon früh den Gedanken aus, dass die Informatik den Computer nur als ein Hilfsmittel und Medium nutzt, genauso wie die Mathematik den Taschenrechner. Die Fehlvorstellung, die leider auch häufig in den Schulen vermittelt wird, zeigt, dass hier Aufklärung nötig ist.
In dieser Arbeit wird ein Datenmodell für Shared Annotations vorgestellt. Basierend auf einem bereits existierenden Datenmodell für Annotationen, wird dieses erweitert um die Möglichkeit der Modellierung von Shared Annotations. Daraufhin werden Funktionen von Shared Annotations erläutert, die über das neue Annotationsmodell möglich sind.
Ontologies play an important role in knowledge representation for sharing information and collaboratively developing knowledge bases. They are changed, adapted and reused in different applications and domains resulting in multiple versions of an ontology. The comparison of different versions and the analysis of changes at a higher level of abstraction may be insightful to understand the changes that were applied to an ontology. While there is existing work on detecting (syntactical) differences and changes in ontologies, there is still a need in analyzing ontology changes at a higher level of abstraction like ontology evolution or refactoring pattern. In our approach we start from a classification of model refactoring patterns found in software engineering for identifying such refactoring patterns in OWL ontologies using DL reasoning to recognize these patterns.
With the Multimedia Metadata Ontology (M3O), we have developed a sophisticated model for representing among others the annotation, decomposition, and provenance of multimedia metadata. The goal of the M3O is to integrate the existing metadata standards and metadata formats rather than replacing them. To this end, the M3O provides a scaffold needed to represent multimedia metadata. Being an abstract model for multimedia metadata, it is not straightforward how to use and specialize the M3O for concrete application requirements and existing metadata formats and metadata standards. In this paper, we present a step-by-step alignment method describing how to integrate and leverage existing multimedia metadata standards and metadata formats in the M3O in order to use them in a concrete application. We demonstrate our approach by integrating three existing metadata models: the Core Ontology on Multimedia (COMM), which is a formalization of the multimedia metadata standard MPEG-7, the Ontology for Media Resource of the W3C, and the widely known industry standard EXIF for image metadata
Existing tools for generating application programming interfaces (APIs) for ontologies lack sophisticated support for mapping the logics-based concepts of the ontology to an appropriate object-oriented implementation of the API. Such a mapping has to overcome the fundamental differences between the semantics described in the ontology and the pragmatics, i.e., structure, functionalities, and behavior implemented in the API. Typically, concepts from the ontology are mapped one-to-one to classes in the targeted programming language. Such a mapping only produces concept representations but not an API at the desired level of granularity expected by an application developer. We present a Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) process to generate customized APIs for ontologies. This API generation is based on the semantics defined in the ontology but also leverages additional information the ontology provides. This can be the inheritance structure of the ontology concepts, the scope of relevance of an ontology concept, or design patterns defined in the ontology.
We propose a new approach for mobile visualization and interaction of temporal information by integrating support for time with today's most prevalent visualization of spatial information, the map. Our approach allows for an easy and precise selection of the time that is of interest and provides immediate feedback to the users when interacting with it. It has been developed in an evolutionary process gaining formative feedback from end users.
