Dear SDW Working Group,

I just joined the group and will be at TPAC next week. My name is Maxime Lefrançois, I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Ecole des Mines de Saint-Etienne, FR, affiliated with Université de Lyon.

My primary research topics are Knowledge Representation and the Semantic Web, with a recent focus on making the Semantic Web affordable to lightweight communications and devices.

Projects I worked on and that are partly related to SDW include:
 - developing the knowledge model for the ITEA2 Smart Energy Aware Systems project [1,2]:
- SPARQL-Generate, an extension of SPARQL to efficiently lift messages in heterogeneous formats to RDF [3];
- RDF Presentation and RDF Presentation negociation, allows clients and servers to negociate lightweight representations for RDF graphs [4].

I will hence mostly be interested in the discussions around the Time ontology, the SSN ontology, and describing coverage using QB.

Looking forward to TPAC.

Maxime Lefrançois
