Re: Jan Polowinski has joined the Semantic Web Interfaces Community Group

Hi all,

Having joined the group some time ago, my introduction was still pending:

I participated the last workshop in Madrid and decided to stay in contact with the group, since I see a close connection between my research interests on visualisation in the field of ontological data and the work on semantic web interfaces. Currently I'm continuing work on the RDFS/OWL Visualisation Language [links below] that I proposed at the workshop and I will hopefully soon have a working prototype that interprets RVL. RVL declaratively maps rdf:Properties  to graphic means, where the graphic means are those that have been formalised in the Visualisation Ontology, which Martin Voigt and I worked on earlier. 

It would be great to find people via the list who give comments on the language or use it in their own tools. Though I think the visualisation of SW data and user interfaces for this data are actually two different things they seem to be very much related to me since visualisations need to be configured via UIs and UIs need visualisations to present data to humans. Besides this, Information visualisation was one area covered by the last workshop, so I think there will be interested researchers around.

In addition to visualisation, I'm also interested in the model-based UI discussion for two reasons - first, I faced the challenge of generating editors from (RDF-based) models in my PhD work (at TU Dresden, Germany), second it seems to become important in many situations, one is in building a mapping UI in my current project (I'm also working on a linked library data project at SLUB Dresden in Germany). 

Thank you for everyone who worked on the proposal for the next workshop, when you need additional reviewers I can contribute. Since I have to finish my thesis next year, I don't know yet, whether I can visit the workshop, though.

Cheers,

Jan
