OSCA Foundation, Nepomuk, and the Importance of Semantics

,----[ Quote ]
| Nepomuk was managed previously by the German Research Centre for Artificial 
| Intelligence (please note that the previous link references a Wikipedia 
| entry, as the official site isn't resolving currently). In December, 
| Nepomuk's official funding ended, but it continues as an open source effort, 
| and the newly incorporated Open Semantic Collaboration Architecture 
| Foundation (OSCAF) plans on working closely with Nepomuk (and similar 
| applications) to further new developments in semantic technology.

Plasma, Context and Nepomuk

| Imagine if you will ... (ah, such a classic start! =) You are working on a
| work project involving Sarah and John and Marmaduke; you switch to working on
| your MySpace profile ... Let's call each state (the work project, MySpace
| fiddling) a "context" and changing between them a "context switch". What
| happens with the rest of the software running on your computer when you
| switch contexts? Answer: pretty much nothing. At least not automatically.

Nepomuk and KDE to introduce the semantic desktop

,----[ Quote ]
| If you follow technology trends, you have probably heard of the semantic
| desktop -- a data layer for annotating and sharing the information in your
| computer. But what you may not be aware of is that the semantic desktop is
| not a distant goal, but scheduled to arrive at the end of 2008. And, when it
| does, the idea will probably be implemented through the work done by the
| Nepomuk project, and, most likely, by KDE first.

Fetch, Nepomuk, fetch!

| Search - a very important topic when it comes to data in general. The same is 
| true for metadata and all that is Nepomuk. I blogged about the virtual 
| folders idea for KMail which will be realized through Nepomuk. But before 
| that there is the "simple" desktop search. We know it from systems like 
| Beagle or Strigi. With Nepomuk, however, a lot more is possible. We are just 
| getting started.

More about Nepomuk-KDE: Soprano and KDE integration

,----[ Quote ]
| As the central meta data storage Soprano will be accessible to all 
| applications through the KDE application framework
| 
| The storage itself will be filled in different ways. First, there is 
| KMetaData: It provides easy to use functions for system developers to 
| create and read meta data in storage. Think of applications where meta 
| data are an essential part of the program: Digikam and Amarok are 
| typical examples.
