(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute)

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, or RPI, is a private research university located in Troy, New York, United States. It was founded in 1824 by Stephen Van Rensselaer for the "application of science to the common purposes of life", and is the oldest technological university in the English-speaking world. Built on a hillside, RPI's 275-acre (111 ha) campus overlooks the historic city of Troy and the Hudson River and is a blend of traditional and modern architecture. The institute operates an on-campus business incubator and the 1,250-acre (510 ha) Rensselaer Technology Park, and is known for its success in the transfer of technology from the laboratory to the marketplace.

Graduate Research Assistantship More Info: contact Jeff Trinkle (trink@cs.rpi.edu) or visit www.cs.rpi.edu/~trink/gra.html The Experience: Be part of a multi-institution robotics research group developing theories and algorithms that will make the robots of the future as dexterous as the humans of today. The research will also contribute to advances in intelligent prosthetic devices and better physics engines for computer games. Some physics engines already use some of our algorithms (e.g., ODE, PhysX).

Solution Reduce it using semantic wiki. Gain OWL RDF Jena XML SPARQL Protege Java JSP Pellet RIF DL Automated Data Propagation Smart... One of the main reasons that why semantic web technology is adopted slowly is its complexity: End user learning curve: understand language; learn tools (ontology editor, annotation tools) How end users engage? End tool needs application, not only tool (like editor) – application facilitate end user engagement. Ex: user get homepage for free {{PersonInfo}}{{Person}} Need end user to contribute data, but how? Allow user to contribute data, not only expert. Too build semantic web application, high learning curve: reasoner, editor, parser, browser, api, triple store, … One of the major barriers for the mass adoption of semantic technology is its complexity, for both end users and tool builders. Semantic Wiki provides an application infrastructure that serves for end users as a friendly interface to collaboratively provide/consume semantic data tool builders as a handy workbench to develop lightweight semantic web applications Demo Site: http://tw.rpi.edu/wiki

Privacy and Trust

Privacy and Trust

The semantic web is the privacy problem Easy access to distributed data sources creates privacy problems We need to leverage research in content-based trust, reputation based trust, and security to address these problems Users are currently unaware of how there data will be used. How can we make them aware? Research focus: automated trust decisions about data and services not necessarily people.
