- 14. Reusing URIs
- 15. Why reuse URIs • Data interoperability • Queries work over multiple datasets • Semantic definitions allows alignments to be reasoned • (Often) the creators of the URIs have good idea on how data should be structured

(As it is not written in Cyrillic) • en-LV or en-428 (As it is presented in Latvia) • en-GB or en-826 (As is is composed in British English) • en-Latn-GB?Region subtags are used to indicate linguistic variations associated with or appropriate to a specific country, territory, or region. Typically, a region subtag is used to indicate variations such as regional dialects or usage, or region-specific spelling conventions. It can also be used to indicate that content is expressed in a way that is appropriate for use throughout a region, for instance, Spanish content tailored to be useful throughout Latin America. -- RFC 5646
- 20. Glottolog • Identifies languoids (language varieties) • Uses URLs http://glottolog.org/resource/languoid/id/queb1247 • More information can be found by following the link
- 22. ISOcat • Effort to standardize linguistic vocabulary from ISO Technical Committee • Standardized “Data Categories” in a “Registry” • Discontinued in December 2014
- 23. Problems with ISOcat According to Schuurman et al. • Too easy to get a login • “Out-of-control” • Entries were copies of other entries • “People sometimes copied an entry, just in order to make sure the original owner would not change the entry without them knowing it” • Complexity - Too many obligatory and overly technical fields As an alternative the CLARIN concept registry is (still) being introduced.

- 24. LexInfo • Ontology for “associat[ing] linguistic information with respect to any level of linguistic description and expressivity to elements in an ontology” • Expands OntoLex-Lemon with a set of general categories

- 28. OLiA Ontologies of Linguistic Annotation • Modular architecture for describing annotation schemes: • Reference Model: Common terminology (similar to LexInfo) • Annotation Model: Describes a particular annotation scheme • Linking Model: Describes the linking between the reference and annotation
- 29. GOLD - General Ontology Linguistic Description • Quite popular • Defines many terms • ‘Loose’ semantics • Sometimes has range and domains on properties • Not clear how this fits together

- 36. Services using linked data
- 37. Service-oriented architectures • It is implemented a self-contained operation unit. • It is a black box for its consumers, which only need to know the interface, not the implementation. • It may consist of other underlying services. Interoperability is a significant challenge here
- 38. Service chains Translation DE => EN Parser (EN) Sentiment Analysis (EN) Often tricky to do in practice!
- 39. Issues with service chains • Services are often components of pipelines without clear usage to the end user • The technology readiness level of services is often quite low, with little documentation or graphical user interface, • Services are hard to install often requiring compiling from source or specialized libraries not found in major software repositories.
- 40. Teanga • RDF and Linked Data to provide service interoperability • Docker to enable easy install and usage • Attractive Web Front-End (Bootstrap, AngularJS, NodeJS) • Graceful control of errors
