''The material (lecture notes and presentations) on this page are still mere drafts, and is posted here for information purposes only.''

 * Lecture notes for the 15926 Tutorials can be found in the svn ([source:/projects/IOHN/Presentations/15926Tutorial-lecture-notes.pdf pdf] and [source:/projects/IOHN/Presentations/15926Tutorial-lecture-notes.tex LaTeX]).



==== Remaining Work ====
 * Change template to the one found [http://www.prodat.no/gasta/pca/ here].
 * Fix text for templates
 * Verify text for Property
 * General layout overhaul

=== Module 1 ===
An introduction to the "Data Sheet Problem", ontologies and a general overview of ISO 15926. 
 * Module 1 [source:/projects/IOHN/Presentations/15926Tutorial_module1.ppt PowerPoint presentation]

=== Module 2 ===

==== Part 1. Basic semantic structure of 15926 ====
 * Module 2 - Part1 [source:/projects/IOHN/Presentations/15926Tutorial_module2_part1.ppt PowerPoint presentation]

'''Important theoretical background for understanding the basic semantic structure of 15926. Also, how this theory applies to 15926.'''
Focus is on classes, not relationship or possible_individual

 * What a class is, where it is found in the 15926-2. (Diagram)
 * Subsumption -> specialization
 * Membership -> classification
 * Difference between inclusion and membership
 * Meta-classes
 * Relations
   * What is a relationship
   * What is a classofrelationship
   * Why we skip relationship in the rest of this course
   * Important classOfRelationships
     * classOfCompositionOfIndividual
     * classOfIndirectProperty
 * Show sample constructs in diagrams. (e.g. connect the class car and the class wheel with a classOfIndirectProperty)
 * ...
 * Point to templates: 
   * Complex structures leads to complex implementations (in 15926)
   * Show how the temperature range is implemented ([wiki:TemplateDescriptionCIPcSQQ ref])

==== Part 2. Reference data, templates ====
'''Goal: Learn how to express basic statements in 15926 using templates'''
Use pressure transmitter (again) as the example throughout the module. 

'''RDS'''
 * Show the RDS, explain how you can find RD (search, click, browse)
 * ''Exercise:''Find the particular elements in a datasheet
   * What kind of item is this data sheet describing
   * What kind of properties does this data sheet contain
   * Can you find the appropriate classes for these elements
   * (Magne had good examples for exercises)
   * Show solution
'''Templates'''
 * Reiterate property range
 * Show template for property range
 * Modify the template example (e.g. find
 * Suggest a new shorthand template, (with entity types?)
 * Discuss shorthand template (This requires a very skilled lecturer ...)
