W3C Webinar: Discovery in Distributed Multimodal Interaction
17 September 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3197
The W3C Multimodal Interaction Working Group (MMI-WG) is
pleased to announce the second webinar on “Discovery in
Distributed Multimodal Interaction”, to be held on September
24, 2013, at 11:00 a.m. ET.
http://www.w3.org/2002/mmi/
Prior to this second webinar, the MMI-WG held the W3C Workshop
on Rich Multimodal Application Development on July 22-23 in New
York Metropolitan Area, US, and identified that
distributed/dynamic applications depend on the ability of
devices and environments to find each other and learn what
modalities they support. Therefore this second webinar will
focus on the topic of device/service discovery to handle
Modality Components of the MMI Architecture dynamically.
http://www.w3.org/2013/07/mmi/summary
The discussion during the webinar will interest anyone who
wants to take advantage of the dramatic increase in new
interaction modes, whether for health care, financial services,
broadcasting, automotive, gaming, or consumer devices.
Several experts from the industry and analyst communities will
share their experiences and views on the explosive growth of
opportunities for the development of applications that provide
enhanced multimodal user-experiences. Read more and register
for the webinar. Learn more about Multimodal Interaction at
W3C.

Last Call: TriG
20 September 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3216
The RDF Working Group has published a Last Call Working Draft
of "TriG." The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a
general-purpose language for representing information in the
Web. This document defines a textual syntax for RDF called TriG
that allows an RDF dataset to be completely written in a
compact and natural text form, with abbreviations for common
usage patterns and datatypes. TriG is an extension of the
Turtle [turtle] format. Comments are welcome through 11
October. Learn more about the Semantic Web Activity.

20 September 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3214
The CSS Working Group and the SVG Working Group have published
a First Public Working Draft of "DOMMatrix interface." This
specification describes a transformation matrix interface with
the dimension of 3×2 and 4×4. The transformation matrix
interface replaces the SVGMatrix interface from SVG. It is a
common interface used to describe 2D and 3D transformations on
a graphical context for SVG, Canvas 2D Context and CSS
Transforms. Learn more about the Style Activity and the

CSS Ruby Module Level 1, and CSS Syntax Module Level 3 Drafts
Published
20 September 2013 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/blog/news/archives/3212
The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) Working Group has published
two Working Drafts today:
http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/members
* CSS Ruby Module Level 1. “Ruby” are short runs of text
alongside the base text, typically used in East Asian
documents to indicate pronunciation or to provide a short
annotation. This module describes the rendering model and
formatting controls related to displaying ruby annotations
in CSS. CSS is a language for describing the rendering of
structured documents (such as HTML and XML) on screen, on
paper, in speech, etc.
* CSS Syntax Module Level 3. This module describes, in
general terms, the basic structure and syntax of CSS
stylesheets. It defines, in detail, the syntax and parsing
of CSS – how to turn a stream of bytes into a meaningful
stylesheet.
