Project proposal

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is a 4th year Egyptian Muslim student, studying Business Informatics at
the German University in Cairo.
Last semester I had written a seminar paper entitled "Approaches for
enhancing Web Data Utilization", the paper addressed some approaches from
which was the Semantic web applications. This semester, we are having a
Bachelor project; me and one of my friends are interested in Semantic Web
Applications.

We have an idea, and we need your help.
The idea is to implement an application that can be integrated with any
research repository, this application will ask the user to enter the
citation and keywords of a Paper in a form. The application should be able
to link this Paper to the Web of Data, using very simple RDF like


   - [Object] [Is written by] [author1]
   - [Object] [Is written by] [author2]
   - [Object] [ has a keyword] [keyword1]
   - [Object] [ has a keyword] [keyword2]
   - [Object] [ published in] [magazine1]


The application should also be able to generate some candidate matches that
are confirmed by the user, to be able to achieve the state of being linked
by generating RDF like [author1] [same as] [http://......]

We are very new to Semantic Web, and we do not know if this is applicable or
not. Though, we think this will be adding value, as it will facilitate
linking Publications.

So would you please tell us, will you be able to help us?

Thank you,
Regards,
Mariam Abed
