Make sure you download the papers and web sites in good time before the exam. That way you are safe if a site becomes unavailable or somehow damaged the last few days before the exam.

Revision as of 14:51, 16 January 2020

Textbook

The textbook in INFO216 is Semantic Web for the Working Ontologist, Second Edition: Effective Modeling in RDFS and OWL by Dean Allemang and James Hendler (Jun 3, 2011). Morgan Kaufmann. The whole book is obligatory reading.


Other materials

In addition, the materials listed below for each lecture are either mandatory or suggested reading. Because we are moving from Java to Python this spring, the reading list is not final. We will add more materials to each lecture in the next few weeks.

The lectures and lectures notes are also part of the curriculum.

Make sure you download the electronic resources to your own computer in good time before the exam. This is your own responsibility. That way you are safe if a site becomes unavailable or somehow damaged the last few days before the exam.

Note: to download some of the papers, you need to be inside UiB's network. Either use a computer directly on the UiB network or connect to your UiB account through VPN.
