It also explicitly document the short-cut/ short-hand and other specific template types implied by this methodology. === How to add new Reference Data === * http://www.cisoilgas.com/article/Issue-9/IT-Infrastructure/ISO-15926-lifecycle-data-for-process-plant/ This link has a brief introduction about need of ISO15926 standards, Some examples of the business benefits through adoption of the ISO 15926 standard, Bentley's specific initiative towrds development of the ISO 15926 model and implementation of ISO 15926 capabilities witin the organization. * http://www.constructionsoftwarereview.com/blog/2009/04/06/how-bentley-systems-using-iso-15926 === Compliance Levels === * https://www.posccaesar.org/wiki/ISO15926Primer_Parts_Colors * https://www.posccaesar.org/svn/projects/IDS-ADI/ComplianceSpecification/ISO_15926_Compliance_Specification.doc This document provides guidelines for compliance with ISO-15926. These guidelines are defined according to several “Compliance Categories” to enable pragmatic and rigorous compliance, suitable for business arrangements between participants (Owner-Operators, EPC Contractors, Software and Solutions Vendors, Goods and Materials Vendors, and other Services Contractors) in the relevant industry domains. == Semantic Web Technologies == === Semantic Web Overview === * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web This Wiki page is about Semantic Web technology. It's relationship to hyper text web, OOPs , components and some of the challenges for the Semantic Web. * http://www.infowebml.ws/Topics/papers/15926SW.htm This page is about how Semantic Web technologies/ Standards enabling Process Industry to create tools to help impleemnt ISO 15926. Some related links are also provided in here. * http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/ The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries. It is a collaborative effort led by W3C with participation from a large number of researchers and industrial partners. It is based on the Resource Description Framework (RDF). This page got related Publications / Articles / Interviews links. * http://www.consortiuminfo.org/bulletins/semanticweb.php This is an Interview with Tim Berners-Lee on The Semantic Web. * http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/Architecture.html This link is an attempt to give a high-level overview of the architecture of the WWW by Mr. Tim Berners-Lee === RDF/OWL === * http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-rdf-primer-20040210/ Resource Description Framework (RDF)is a language for representing information about resources in the World Wide Web. It is particularly intended for representing metadata about Web resources. * http://www.altova.com/semantic_web.html Berners-Lee defines the Semantic Web as “a web of data that can be processed directly and indirectly by machines.” This page talks about Semantic web technologies like RDF, OWL and provide links for further information. * http://infomesh.net/2001/swintro/ This page is designed as being a simple but comprehensive introductory publication for anybody trying to get into the Semantic Web Technology. It also has list of some of the good primers and materials currently available on Semantic Web. * https://www.posccaesar.org/wiki/ISO15926Primer_OtherResources#OWL * https://www.posccaesar.org/wiki/ISO15926Primer_OtherResources#RDF * http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-owl-features-20040210/ The OWL Web Ontology Language is designed for use by applications that need to process the content of information instead of just presenting information to humans. OWL facilitates greater machine interpretability of Web content than that supported by XML, RDF, and RDF Schema (RDF-S) by providing additional vocabulary along with a formal semantics. === SPARQL === * http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-rdf-sparql-query-20080115/ This page is about SPARQL query language for RDF; SPARQL can be used to express queries across diverse data sources, whether the data is stored natively as RDF or viewed as RDF via middleware. SPARQL contains capabilities for querying required and optional graph patterns along with their conjunctions and disjunctions. * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPARQL This is Wikipedia page about SPARQL; SPARQL is an RDF query language; its name is a recursive acronym that stands for SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language. It was standardized by the RDF Data Access Working Group (DAWG) of the World Wide Web Consortium, and is considered a key semantic web technology. * http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-protocol/ This document specifies the SPARQL Protocol; it uses WSDL 2.0 to describe a means for conveying SPARQL queries to an SPARQL query processing service and returning the query results to the entity that requested them. * https://www.posccaesar.org/wiki/ISO15926Primer_OtherResources#SPARQL === QXF === * https://www.posccaesar.org/wiki/RdsWipOneProcess This page describes QXF; QXF is an XML format that allows representation of only template instances. Since all ISO 15926 data (including reference data) is representable as instances of templates, this is sufficient to describe all reference data. === QMXF === * https://www.posccaesar.org/wiki/RdsWipOneProcess This page has a reference about QMXF; QMXF is an XML format that allows representation of template and class definitions. == iRING == iRING is the umbrella name for the collection of software that implements the full specificaion of ISO 15926. Here is the respository of information and downloads. * http://iring.ids-adi.org ---- [[ViewTopic(ISO15926HowTo_References)]]
