Digital Enterprise Research Institute www.deri.ie
Enabling networked knowledge
n  Help users to:
¨ Understand energy data
¨ Support energy performance objectives &
other business performance objectives
– human resources (i.e. occupancy comfort)
– enterprise resource planning (i.e. room
utilization)
¨ Make appropriate energy saving decisions
Energy Situational Awareness
Digital Enterprise Research Institute www.deri.ie
Enabling networked knowledge
Key Challenges
n  Technology and Data Interoperability
¨  Data scattered among different systems
¨  Multiple incompatible technologies make it difficult to use
n  Interpreting Dynamic and Static Data
¨  Sensors, ERP, BMS, assets databases, …
¨  Need to proactively identify efficiency opportunities
n  Empowering Actions and Including Users in the Loop
¨  Understanding of direct and indirect impacts of activities
¨  Embedding impacts within business processes
¨  Engaging Users

Universal Mechanism to Link Everything…
¨ Simple
¨ Lightweight
¨ Decentralized
¨ Loosely Coupled
¨ Scalable
¨ Standardized
….sounds a lots like the Web
What is Needed?
Digital Enterprise Research Institute www.deri.ie
Enabling networked knowledge
n  Motivation: Access multiple document systems at CERN
n  Key Enablers
¨  Leveraged existing protocols (TCP/IP/DNS/…)
¨  URI: Global Document Identification
¨  HTTP: Global Document Access
¨  HTML: Standard Format for Documents
–  But also supported many formats PDF, DOC, GIF, JPG, etc.
¨  Encouraged Interlinking: Hyperlinks between documents
Exposing and Linking…..
…..but NOT replacing existing systems
Web 1.0 Document Sharing

n  Real-time User Interaction
¨  Twitter, etc.
n  Citizen Sensing
¨  Users reporting issues and
problems
n  Citizen Actuation
¨  Users enacting changes in the

Two Key Ingredients
1.  RDF – Resource Description Framework
Graph based Data – nodes and arcs
¨  Identifies objects (URIs)
¨  Interlink information (Relationships)
2.  Vocabularies (Ontologies)
¨  provide shared understanding of a domain
¨  organise knowledge in a machine-comprehensible way
¨  give an exploitable meaning to the data

Enabling networked knowledge
Linked Data Principles
1.  Use URIs to identify the “things” in your data
2.  Use HTTP URIs so people (and machines) can
look them up on the Web
3.  When a URI is looked up, return a
description of the thing in a structured
format (RDF)
4.  Include links to related things to provide
context
