Over the past five years the SIMILE Project at MIT has investigated useful applications of Semantic Web standards and technologies to the problems of digital libraries and across the spectrum of data management from the personal to the enterprise. The project has produced a large number of tools in common use today, including Longwell (a faceted browsing engine for RDF data), Timeline (a DHTML Ajax widget for visualizing time-based data), and Exhibit (a javascript Web application framework for publishing collection data on the Web with a range of cool search, browse and visualization features). This session will include a demonstration of these tools in action, an update on the latest innovation from the project to manage enterprise citation data, and thoughts about what’s next for this project.
