Hi,

I am looking for a web service which can take PMID or PMCID as input and can return publication year as output. Thanks

I don't think there is a service that does that at the moment.

Bio2RDF might have that information in one of their datasets...??  We'll be wrapping Bio2RDF in SADI services over the next few weeks, so if you need a *service*, rather than a query, then you'll be able to use SADI for this task soon!

Ahmad, Mark,
1. Alex and Leyla Garcia have generated an RDF-version of PMC - http://biotea.idiginfo.org/  
2.  We haven't updated Bio2RDF's PubMed database in years. 
3.  Does the Bio2RDF2SADI framework generate services on datatype predicates?

Is there a plan to?

It will if they're in the indices ;-) We're certainly *planning* that
they could.

...though I guess the indexing query, the way it's set-up, will miss
those cases since it explicitly asks for the rdf:type of the object part
of the triple. I will play a bit today and see if I can generate
indices over the datatype properties in R3. That would be fantastic,
really!

yes, we'll need type-predicate-literal pairs, which we don't currently compute.

The index that I'm running right now does this :-) It filters out a lot
of core vocab though (owl#xxx and rdf-syntax yyy) - it tries to take
only biologically meaningful stuff... that might not be what you want
for your primary index, but I think its what we want for the SADI services.
