Roll up, roll up... for a Talis Platform presentation
Posted by Paul Miller at February 8, 2008 02:21 PM
Our very own Ian Davis will be giving a presentation on the Talis Platform next week, at the Open University's Knowledge Media Institute (KMi).
“The Talis Platform provides a generic infrastructure for building data-rich Web and Semantic Web applications. By taking care of the 'heavy lifting' associated with data management and storage, developers are freed up to concentrate on building applications using the Platform's APIs and services. In this presentation I will outline the problems the Platform is attempting to solve, describe the principles on which our approach is based, and ground these in trends such as 'Software as a Service'. The capabilities of the Platform will be illustrated through demos of Platform services for mashing up heterogeneous data and providing faceted querying over data sets. I'll wrap up the talk by describing how members of the audience can use the Platform to support their own applications, and help shape its future development.”
KMi look like they've got a nice setup with their KMi Podium, and make events available for watching live or (higher quality, Tom tells me) in archived form after the event.
So if you're awake at 1100 GMT (find out) on Wednesday 13 February, and reckon you can be one of the first hundred through the virtual door, why not come along and hear about what we're doing from the mouth of the CTO?
For everyone else, check back later in the week for the archived version which you can then watch at your leisure.
