ArchCamp Five, Budapest

ArchCamp Five, Budapest 2008
This page is a summary of ArchCamp 5, held in Budapest at the 36th International CAA conference. We only had one web connection (and no Kayt!) so we couldn't write the wiki in real time. Hence, much here may be inaccurate, apocryphal, or just plain made up. Please amend as necessary!

New goodies from the ADS

Ontopedia

D2RQ
Leif gave us a demo of D2RQ - a server that enables you to connect to relational databases as though they were RDF. That's handy if you want to make the accessible to the Semantic Web.

JUNG
He then showed off a handy Java library called JUNG which makes it easy to create interactive networks that you can play around with. Well, easy if you're a java coder anyway!
