Tonight we'll have the first of our Semantic Web application demos. Three lovely volunteers will be showing actual applications that use Semantic Web technologies in various states of development.

Brian Panulla will demonstrate a system for building and interacting with rubrics - tools for educators to facilitate assessment and grading of student assignments. The rubrics are modeled and stored using Semantic Web technologies.

Leif Warner will be demonstrating a semantic web system modeling complex and shifting state of the local Portland music scene.

Paul Daigle will be demonstrating a semantic system for identity management. The model cross-links between authenticated social objects (people, groups, time, location) and associated media (data, content) to help manage access.

So come, listen, discuss!
