Access right ontologies[edit]
The AMO ontology developped by Michel Buffa and Catherine Faron Zucker has been presented to the participants of the workin group. A round table from scratch seems to converge to a similar modelisation Several questions have come out: - the scenario of connecting several social networks each with its own access policy should be further studied - actions on content and actions on users should be distinguished - handle the inheritance of access types from one directory to one of its documents: it can be handled by a rule similar to the one expressing inheritance of authorized actions from one group of users to its members - a role could be the intention of a user group - the scenario of user exclusion may interest some social network where privacy is more important than sharing.

Social networks analysis ontologies[edit]
SemSNA is an ontology of social network analysis aimed to annotate social data with SNA features that is proposed in [Analysis of a Real Online Social Network Using Semantic Web Framework]. The top Class SNAConcept enables to define the basis of each SNA Concept. A SNAConcept is parametrized by the analyzed relationship with the property isDefinedForProperty and attached to a resource by the property hasSNAConcept. We introduced during this Vocamp the property analyzedGraph to specify the graph on which the analysis has been performed. The schema of the produced version is available here: SemSNA

Tags and tagging ontologies[edit]
We tried to come up with a model of the "tag action" which we modey putting a link between a "resource" (whose specification should integrate the IRW ontology from H. Halpin and V. Presutti) and a "sign".
The idea was also to type the tag action taking into account the classification of the different possible use of a tag as proposed by Golder & Hubermann (2006), and even to extend it to give as much freedom as possible to users as well as a general, albeit precise, model of tagging.
The outcome is represented here http://www.flickr.com/photos/27621977@N05/3953511932/.

Event ontologies[edit]
We first discuss how to define a general model of events for different contexts.
We decide to use the Event class of the LODE ontoloy as a super class for each type of event: LODE homepageLODE: Linking Open Descriptions of Events: Ryan Shaw, Raphaël Troncy and Lynda Hardman
Then each type of event extends lode:Event. For example we can define a class NewRelationEvent to define a new relation in a social network and define required attributes to model it.
Then we focused on the way to subscribe to events for automatic notifications. In a way, a subscription can be considered as an event too.
We introduce two classes:
- NotificationController: which aims to control the way the notifications are produced
- EventFilter: which set ranges to filter events on their attributes. We will add attributes to this class to specify range of agents, range of time, range locations and other properties to parametrize the subscription of events (coming soon ;) ). We will investigate the Semantic Web Best Practices and Deployment Working Group in order to model these properties.

Web services ontologies[edit]
Existing initiatives[edit]
- a WS ontology focused on composition through pre-conditions and effects of processes.
- another description of WS.
- SWSO - FLOWS: http://www.daml.org/services/swsf/1.0/swso
- a description also focused on composition through "workflows".
Other approaches[edit]
- RDF mapping of WSDL: http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl20-rdf
- a RDF description of a WS.
- SAWSDL: http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/sawsdl
- allow the addition of references to existing ontologies for WSDL elements or its associated XLM schema.
- WS-Policy: http://www.w3.org/Submission/WS-Policy
- allow the addition of "syntactic" constraints directly in the WSDL.

Call for Participation[edit]
Subject :
VoCamp, creating new vocabularies, Nice, France, 24th and 25th September 2009
Body:
The 10th VoCamp and the first in France will take place in Nice on the French Riviera the 24th and 25th September 2009. VoCamp is a series of free informal events where people can spend some time creating and maintaining lightweight vocabularies/ontologies/thesauruses for the Semantic Web/Web of Data/Linked Open Data. (see http://vocamp.org/ ) The VoCamp idea is influenced by BarCamp but is oriented to hands-on technical work and practical outputs to publish new vocabularies. The emphasis of the events is not on creating the perfect ontology in a particular domain, but on creating vocabularies that are good enough for people to start using for publishing data on the Web. VoCamps are free for participants. Sign up by going to the website (attendance is limited to 30 people at the moment so be quick): http://vocamp.org/wiki/VoCampNiceSeptember2009
