Content Model Workstreamphase 1
Business transformation goals
• Efficient content updating and publishing
• New business opportunities enabled
• Efficient location of internal content
• Fine-grained business analytics
Phases of the content modelling workstream
• phase 1: creating the model
• phase 2: testing and refining the model
• phase 3: handing over the model to DK
• phase 4: migrating content to the new model
Phase 1 deliverables
• A model of how DK content can be structured as content objects
• Ontologies, which support content search and reuse
• A prototype to demonstrate content objects and ontologies
What are content objects?
Reusable "chunks" of meaningful content, which can be combined to created products
Book structure
XML structure
Selecting content
DocBook Assembly
• DocBook’s method for topic-based authoring.• Can be chunked at any level (whole chapter or a paragraph)• Can be transformed from or to a traditional book structure
DocBook Toolkit
• Out-of-the-box production of PDF, HTML, EPUB, slides etc (good for proofing)• Excellent tools support (Oxygen XML)• Fully customizable - can layer own XSL on top• Disassemble existing DK-Schema books using standard XSL
Introduction to Linked data• Linked data is about facts• fact: The national gallery is an art gallery• fact: The national gallery is in Trafalgar Square• fact: Trafalgar Square's nearest tube is Charing Cross
• Very simple facts• Thing ... has some property ... value• subject ... predicate ... object
• Facts are stored in a database called a triplestore• Ask questions like – what cultural buildings have a nearest
tube station of Charing Cross• Linked data uses the web• http://sparql.kode1100.com/id/geonames/6944334• http://sparql.kode1100.com/id/station/westminster
• Linked data stores are schema-less• Got a new fact – just dump it in the store
What facts might be useful to DK?• Facts about real world things• e.g. National Gallery• type, nearest tube, lat/long, wheelchair access, opening
times, tours, events, ...• usually called reference data• Store them once – accessible to all titles and products
• Facts about content• this content object is about the national gallery, was written
by ..., uses this image ..., which was taken by ..., which is rights cleared for the UK, is on page ... of the 2012 edition of the RG to London
Facts need a vocabulary• That's what the ontology is• A vocabulary for writing down facts
• The ontology is divided into a number of separate modules• there currently are ontology modules
• assembly• asset• attraction• book
• content• location• product• transport
• travel-product• travel• web
• there are extensible controlled vocabularies• book-categories• brands• series
• travel-content• travel-themes
