This chapter focuses on improved access to marine science data, enabling researchers to generate new information and knowledge products. The history of controlled vocabulary developments in marine sciences, from paper publications to the Semantic Web, is explored in detail. This history is being furthered through the publication of Linked Open Data, meaning: the publication of clearly identifiable entities; a simple, universal mechanism for retrieving resources; a generic graph-based data model; and publishing explicit relationships to other resources. Progress towards Linked Open Data for marine science is reported in this chapter. As shown by the Data-Information-Knowledge ecosystem, the approach of “small pieces of data loosely joined” provides presentation and organisation to data, which creates information. The use of query endpoints to integrate this information from multiple locations into a knowledge base, which required active collaboration between cooperative partners to truly generate new knowledge and to address emerging science questions, is described.

Linked Open Data

O surgimento de novas tecnologias, tem introduzido meios para a divulgação e a disponibilização das informações mais eficientemente. Uma iniciativa, chamada de Europeana, vem promovendo esta adaptação dos objetos informacionais dentro da Web, e mais especificamente no Linked Data. Desta forma, o presente estudo tem como objetivo apresentar uma discussão acerca da relação entre as Humanidades Digitais e o Linked Open Data, na figura da Europeana. Para tal, utilizamos uma metodologia exploratória e que busca explorar as questões relacionadas ao modelo de dados da Europeana, EDM, por meio do SPARQL. Como resultados, compreendemos as características do EDM, pela utilização do SPARQL. Identificamos, ainda, a importância que o conceito de Humanidades Digitais possui dentro do contexto da Europeana.Palavras-chave: Web semântica. Linked open data. Humanidades digitais. Europeana.

Query Performance

Semantic Web has recently gained traction with the use of Linked Open Data (LOD) on the Web. Although numerous state-of-the-art methodologies, standards, and technologies are applicable to the LOD cloud, many issues persist. Because the LOD cloud is based on graph-based resource description framework (RDF) triples and the SPARQL query language, we cannot directly adopt traditional techniques employed for database management systems or distributed computing systems. This paper addresses how the LOD cloud can be efficiently organized, retrieved, and evaluated. We propose a novel hybrid approach that combines the index and live exploration approaches for improved LOD join query performance. Using a two-step index structure combining a disk-based 3D R*-tree with the extended multidimensional histogram and flash memory-based k-d trees, we can efficiently discover interlinked data distributed across multiple resources. Because this method rapidly prunes numerous false hits, the performance of join query processing is remarkably improved. We also propose a hot-cold segment identification algorithm to identify regions of high interest. The proposed method is compared with existing popular methods on real RDF datasets. Results indicate that our method outperforms the existing methods because it can quickly obtain target results by reducing unnecessary data scanning and reduce the amount of main memory required to load filtering results.

The eye is at the forefront of developing therapies for genetic diseases. With the FDA approval of the first gene-therapy drug for a form of congenital blindness, numerous studies have been initiated to develop gene therapies for other forms of eye diseases. These examinations have revealed new information about the benefits as well as restrictions to using drug-delivery routes to the different parts of the eye. In this article, we will discuss a brief history of gene therapy and its importance to the eye and ocular delivery landscape that is currently being investigated, and provide insights into their advantages and disadvantages. Efficient delivery routes and vehicle are crucial for an effective, safe, and longer-lasting therapy.
