Online QDA – Getting started with Qualitative Data Analysis Software

Getting started with Qualitative Data Analysis SoftwareBelow are links to materials that tell you how to undertake some of the basic activities in qualitative data analysis software such as importing documents and starting projects, coding and its organisation, creating memos, text and code searching, reporting and retrieving information.Many software developers now produce their own teaching materials that cover the basics of the software use. Where this is so the links below are to their materials. In other cases there are links to materials on this site that cover older versions of the software to help those who are still using these versions.

Amaya Home Page

W3C’s Editor/Browser

Amaya is a Web editor, i.e. a tool used to create and update documents directly on the Web. Browsing features are seamlessly integrated with the editing and remote access features in a uniform environment. This follows the original vision of the Web as a space for collaboration and not just a one-way publishing medium.

Work on Amaya started at W3C in 1996 to showcase Web technologies in a fully-featured Web client. The main motivation for developing Amaya was to provide a framework that can integrate as many W3C technologies as possible. It is used to demonstrate these technologies in action while taking advantage of their combination in a single, consistent environment.

Amaya started as an HTML + CSS style sheets editor. Since that time it was extended to support XML and an increasing number of XML applications such as the XHTML family, MathML, and SVG. It allows all those vocabularies to be edited simultaneously in compound documents.

Amaya includes a collaborative annotation application based on Resource Description Framework (RDF), XLink, and XPointer. Visit the Annotea project home page.

Amaya – Open Source

Amaya is an open source software project hosted by W3C. You are invited to contribute in many forms (documentation, translation, writing code, fixing bugs, porting to other platforms…).

The Amaya software is written in C and is available for Windows, Unix platforms and MacOS X.

A public irc channel #amaya is available on irc.w3.org (port 6665).

Amaya Team

The application is jointly developed by W3C and the WAM (Web, Adaptation and Multimedia) project at INRIA. The core team includes: Irène Vatton (Project lead, INRIA), Laurent Carcone (W3C), Vincent Quint (INRIA).

The Best Tools for Visualization – ReadWriteWeb

Image by R.B. Boyer via Flickr

Thanks to Sara Perez.

Visualization is a technique to graphically represent sets of data. When data is large or abstract, visualization can help make the data easier to read or understand. There are visualization tools for search, music, networks, online communities, and almost anything else you can think of. Whether you want a desktop application or a web-based tool, there are many specific tools are available on the web that let you visualize all kinds of data. Here are some of the best…..

About to build a semantic web application with JENA

Image by Getty Images via Daylife

I found software to build semantic web aplications.

• Jena. Is a Open Source Semantic web framework. It provides a programmatic environment for RDF, RDFS and OWL, SPARQL and includes a rule-based inference engine.
  The Jena Framework includes:
• A RDF API
• Reading and writing RDF in RDF/XML, N3 and N-Triples
• An OWL API
• In-memory and persistent storage
• SPARQL query engine

So far I only described the components that I used in my application. In future articles I will tell you how I put all the pieces together to build my semantic web application.

Jena work with Joseki. Joseki is an RDF server. The goal of Joseki is to provide an HTTP interface to RDF data. It fully supports SPARQL for querying, but as of yet, it does not provide an update protocol. The project is a sub-project of Jena and is developed as a J2EE application. Joseki can also be run stand-alone server as it ships preconfigured with the Jetty web server.

The Protégé Ontology Editor and Knowledge Acquisition System

The Protégé Ontology Editor and Knowledge Acquisition System.

Protégé is a free, open source ontology editor and knowledge-base framework.

The Protégé platform supports two main ways of modeling ontologies via the Protégé-Frames and Protégé-OWL editors. Protégé ontologies can be exported into a variety of formats including RDF(S), OWL, and XML Schema. (more)

Protégé is based on Java, is extensible, and provides a plug-and-play environment that makes it a flexible base for rapid prototyping and application development. (more)

Protege Ontology Library!

This page is organized into the following groupings:

• OWL ontologies
• Frame-based ontologies
• Ontologies in other formats (e.g., DAML+OIL, RDF Schema, etc.)

If your ontology is available in multiple formats, please feel free to link to it from multiple sections.

Library examples:

• Engineering Design Ontologies: A suite of ontologies developed at the University of Massachusetts Amherst for representing different aspects of the product development process.

• Education Ontology: Ontology for the Minnesota Department of Education based on the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) structures and ISO/IEC 11179 standards. This domain includes information about K-12 students, teachers, schools, districts, enrollments, assessments, USDA food and nutrition programs, and on-line courses. Includes approximately 400 data elements. A case study will be presented at the Semantic Technology conference in March 2006. Feedback -> http://www.danmccreary.com.
• AIM@SHAPE Ontologies: Ontologies pertaining to digital shapes. Source: AIM@SHAPE NoE – Advanced and Innovative Models And Tools for the development of Semantic-based systems for Handling, Acquiring, and Processing knowledge Embedded in multidimensional digital objects.
• Basic Formal Ontology (BFO)
• Dependable Systems Ontology: Ontology about resilient and dependable systems including threats, failures, faults and errors as used in the ReSIST project.
• FOAF Ontology: An ontology describes people, the links between them and the things they create and do. Contributed by Dan Brickley and Libby Miller.
• ka.owl: Defines concepts from academic research. Contributed by Ian Horrocks
• OSM – Ontology for Support and Management: An ontology that contains all constructs required for the various versions of the Ontology for Support and Search Engine Optimization Management of pervasive services by using ontology-based policy mechanisms run by IST-Context project and the research extensions towards Onto-Context framework to demonstrate advantages when context information is used for controlling management operations.
• Videogame’s Elements Ontology: A videogame’s elements ontology that is used to model different videogame’s properties like playability. Contributed by José Luis González University of Granada, Spain.
• Dublin Core: Representation of Dublin Core metadata in Protege.
• Suggested Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO): An ontology developed within the IEEE Standard Upper Ontology Working Group with the goal of developing a standard ontology that will promote data interoperability, information search and retrieval, automated inferencing, and natural language processing.
