prototypical implementations

In this technical report, we present prototypical implementations of innovative tools and methods developed according to the working plan outlined in Technical Report TR-B-09-05 [23]. We present an ontology modularization and integration framework and the SVoNt server, the server-side end of an SVN- based versioning system for ontologies in the Corporate Ontology Engineering pillar. For the Corporate Semantic Collaboration pillar, we present the prototypical implementation of a light-weight ontology editor for non-experts and an ontology based expert finder system. For the Corporate Semantic Search pillar, we present a prototype for algorithmic extraction of relations in folksonomies, a tool for trend detection using a semantic analyzer, a tool for automatic classification of web documents using Hidden Markov models, a personalized semantic recommender for multimedia content, and a semantic search assistant developed in co-operation with the Museumsportal Berlin. The prototypes complete the next milestone on the path to an integral Cor- porate Semantic Web architecture based on the three pillars Corporate Ontol- ogy Engineering, Corporate Semantic Collaboration, and Corporate Semantic Search, as envisioned in [23]

An active member of EFMC: The Division of Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology of the Swiss Chemical Society

The Division of Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology (DMCCB) of the Swiss chemical Society is an active contributor to the dynamism of the Swiss and European scientific community. Founded in 1987, it pursues its mission to foster relationships among its academic and industrial members, to facilitate exchange by organizing symposia and courses, and to encourage scientific excellence. This article presents the Division and highlights both its offer to the community and its participation in the activities of EFMC, the European Federation for Medicinal chemistry and Chemical biology
