View the recorded webcast In 2008-2009, Lee Feigenbaum gave a series of presentations (PART I; PART II) for Semantic Universe on SPARQL, the query language of the Semantic Web. This year, SPARQL is going through some major updates with the release of SPARQL 1.1, and in this webcast, Lee has agreed to revisit the topic to discuss specifically some of what has changed. Lee will use real queries that can be run against real data on the Web to demonstrate the structure and features of SPARQL. SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS: “What’s coming in SPARQL 1.1?” http://www.slideshare.net/LeeFeigenbaum/sparql2-status “SPARQL By Example” http://www.cambridgesemantics.com/2008/09/sparql-by-example “SPARQL Cheat Sheet” http://www.slideshare.net/LeeFeigenbaum/sparql-cheat-sheet * At SemTech 2010, June 21-25, Lee and his colleague Eric Prud’hommeaux, will give a full half-day, hands-on tutorial on SPARQL 1.1.
