Dear Alasdair

thanks for sharing!!

glad to hear about the activities-

I created a similar site a few years ago

when I participated in the scottish SWIG

is there a reason why this is no longer in use?

https://sites.google.com/site/scottishlinkeddataswig/

Is it possible to participate remotely this SWIG meeting?

How can I subscribe to the other mailing lists

(I am a member only of ontology-uk I think)

and how canI join the SWLab at HW?

Cheers

PDM

The 6th Scottish Linked Data Interest Group Workshop (SLiDInG6) will be hosted by the Heriot-Watt University Semantic Web Lab (SWeL) in Edinburgh. The event is sponsored by the SICSA Data Science theme.

Date: Tuesday 29 May 2018
Time: 10:00 – 16:30
Venue: Room 2.33, Earl Mountbatten Building, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh

SLiDInG6 aims to bring together organisations from industry, government and academia from around Scotland to share different perspectives around Linked Data, and to inform participants of current research on Linked Data and its uptake in industry and government.

We plan to have flash talks to highlight current areas of activity and deployment of Semantic Web technologies. We then plan to have discussion groups focusing on: 

• What are the killer apps of the Semantic Web?

• What are the challenges from industry and government? 

• Where are the synergies in Semantic Web research in Scotland? 

• Can we identify projects to push forward for funding?  

We hope that the outcome will be the identification of future collaborations and projects that will be developed after the event.

Is there interest from other members in using the list more actively again?

 

if there interest in the meetups, I guess a list can be useful? new people can be

added as they come on board

 

When we ran the event two years ago we could not get access to that site. That was the reason for creating a new one. It would be good to bring the two back together again.

AW, why didnt you email me or the group about it? I dont think it was ever offline- 

Is it possible to participate remotely this SWIG meeting?

We do not plan to have remote access.

I see if I cn find someone to attend on my behalf
