Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

In the core combinations module "Semantic Technologies", the goal is to research and facilitate innovation in the digital transformation age. A model-based approach will be employed to conceptualize, implement, and deploy semantic information systems. Thereby, individuals or teams design and develop semantic information systems in an experiment-based approach while exploring the potential of "smart" models.

In the winter semester, a project must be conducted in which a semantic information system will be designed, developed, deployed, and evaluated in an experiment setting. The winter semester will be built upon the results of the summer semester and enhance the established semantic information system experiment.

In the summer semester, the foundation for the prototype of the winter semester is provided. Semantic technologies and technical background will be introduced in a lecture. The theoretical foundations will be deepened through practical exercises. To specify the goal of the project and set the context, a use case scenario must be researched and specified.

Correspondingly in the module, students acquire skills to:
* Design semantic technology applications
* Conceptualize and implement scenarios that benefit from semantic technologies in the digital transformation age
* Develop and implement semantic-based prototypes

As the winter semester will be based on content from the Metamodelling course, it is recommended to take the Metamodelling course in parallel to the summer semester part of the semantic technology course.

Assessment and permitted materials

- A written test has to be passed, which will contain theoretical questions and applied problems.

- A seminar paper regarding the use case scenario and design for the semantic information system, including the foundations, must be written and presented.

- To deepen the provided theoretical background, exercises must be completed by the students.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

In detail, the grade is constituted by:

* Seminar paper (30%)
* Exercises (40%)
* Test (30%)

For a positive evaluation of the course, more or equal to 50% of the requirements have to be fulfilled. This applies to each of the three before-mentioned parts, and therefore each of the parts must be positive (>=50% of the respective points).

The grading scale is defined as follows: >=50% - 62,5%: sufficient (Genügend); >62,5% - 75%: satisfactory (Befriedigend); >75% - 87,5%: good (Gut); >87,5%: excellent (Sehr Gut)

There will be compulsory attendance.

Examination topics

The written test includes the content of the course.

The exercises are based on the theoretical content of the course.

The seminar paper includes the content of the course and the project.

The examination topics are selected from the fields of
* Knowledge Engineering,
* Semantic Technologies and
* Metamodelling
