Description
enThe AKT project aims to develop the next generation of knowledge technologies to support organizational knowledge management. AKT will look at all aspects of knowledge management from acquiring and maintaining knowledge to publishing and sharing it. We intend to address all these closely related issues in an integrated approach, making use of recent developments in artificial intelligence, psychology, linguistics, multimedia and Internet technology. The AKT consortium comprises five UK universities and is funded by a 7M GBP, 6-year EPSRC grant in the context of the Interdisciplinary Research Collaborations programme.

Description
enThe Open Guide to Milton Keynes is part of the OpenGuides network of free, community-maintained wiki guidebooks to places around the world. Anyone is free to contribute, whether it's by writing new articles or editing existing articles. The OpenGuides are developed with the Semantic Web in mind; metadata is organised to allow easy machine-readable output, in order to enable re-usage by other web services. The guide has been set up to investigate the application of semantic web technologies in a locality based resource, to provide a service to the local Milton Keynes community, and to explore the possibilities of wiki based social software. The Milton Keynes Open Guide is kindly hosted and provided with technical support by Chris Schmidt from the Open Guide to Boston.

PowerMagpie

PowerMagpie

PowerMagpie is a new generation semantically-enhanced web browser, which is able to dynamically identify and bring into a web browsing session any available semantic markup, which can be found on the Semantic Web. In contrast with previous systems, such as Magpie, which can only use information from a specific, pre-selected ontology, PowerMagpie accesses the whole of the Semantic Web through the Watson gateway and intelligently selects and presents to the user relevant information, drawn from millions of existing semantic web documents. As a result, PowerMagpie avoids the brittleness of earlier semantic browsers and defines a novel, very powerful approach to web browsing in the age of the Semantic Web.

Revyu

Revyu

Revyu.com is a web site where you can review and rate things. Unlike many other reviewing sites on the web, Revyu.com lets you review and rate absolutely anything you can name. Revyu.com exploits Semantic Web technologies, both as the underlying representation mechanism and also to dynamically retrieve semantic information available on the web, which is relevant to a particular review. Because the content of all reviews is published on the site in RDF/XML as well as HTML, you can easily reuse the reviews you write in any other web site or application.

Description
enLending and borrowing books is common amongst groups of people who share similar interests. In such a community there is a fairly high chance that if you need to borrow a particular book, then another member will have a copy. The difficulty is finding out which member of the community has it, without having to bother all of them with the question. The Bookshelf Project was originally conceived to solve this problem for staff working at the Knowledge Media Institute at The Open University in the UK.

Research overview
enMy PhD research focused on using the semantic web to support recommendation-seeking in social networks. Specifically it aimed to: understand how people use word of mouth within their social networks to locate information or explore particular topics; model these processes so they can be replicated in an online environment; build semantic web-based systems that support people in these locating and exploring tasks by making use of their social context.
