Chris@0 25 <a href="http://moustaki.org/dbtune/">DBTune</a> aims at publishing and interlinking such music-related repositories
Chris@0 26 on the Semantic Web, using <a href="http://www.w3.org/RDF/">RDF</a> and the <a href="http://musicontology.com">Music
Chris@0 27 Ontology</a>.
Chris@0 28 For the <a href="http://www.hackday.org/">hackday</a>, the <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk">BBC</a> released <a href="http://bbc-hackday.dyndns.org/">
Chris@0 29 some data</a>, and among them, metadata about the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Peel">John Peel</a> sessions.

Chris@0 45 <p>
Chris@0 46 All resource identifiers defined by this RDF dump are dereferencable. <!--, and support content negotiation.
Chris@0 47 Using the <i>Accept: application/rdf+xml</i> header field, a RDF/XML representation of the resource is sent back.
Chris@0 48 Otherwise, a HTML representation, done using the <a href="http://browser.zitgist.com:8890/">Zitgist browser</a>,
Chris@0 49 is sent back.-->
Chris@0 50 </p>
Chris@0 51 <p>
Chris@0 52 Here are some entry points to the dataset:

Chris@0 86 <p>
Chris@0 87 This dataset is interlinked with <a href="http://dbpedia.org/">DBPedia</a>. The corresponding
Chris@0 88 links are available in <a href="http://moustaki.org/resources/dbpedia-johnpeel.tar.gz">a separate RDF dump</a>.
Chris@0 89 </p>
Chris@0 90 <p>
Chris@0 91 Both works and agents (musicians, bands, engineers, producers) are linked towards corresponding

Chris@0 96 <h2><a name="query" id="query"></a>4. Querying the dataset</h2>
Chris@0 97 <p>
Chris@0 98 The service also exposes a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query/">SPARQL</a> end-point, available
Chris@0 99 at <a href="http://dbtune.org/bbc/peel/sparql/">http://dbtune.org/bbc/peel/sparql/</a>. There is also a small
Chris@0 100 web interface available at <a href="http://dbtune.org/bbc/peel/store/">http://dbtune.org/bbc/peel/store/</a>.

Chris@0 104 <p>
Chris@0 105 The code is split in two parts, and is available under a copyleft license - feel free to use it!
Chris@0 106 </p>
Chris@0 107 <p>
Chris@0 108 The first part is available <a href="http://moustaki.org/urispace/">here</a>. It is a small HTTP server implementing content
Chris@0 109 negotiation. The behavior of the server is specified by a declarative mapping from resource identifiers to the location of
Chris@0 110 their representation.
Chris@0 111 </p>
Chris@0 112
Chris@0 113 <p>
Chris@0 114 The second part is available <a href="http://moustaki.org/p2r/">here</a>. It is an equivalent of
Chris@0 115 <a href="http://sites.wiwiss.fu-berlin.de/suhl/bizer/d2r-server/">D2R Server</a>, but for Prolog knowledge base.
Chris@0 116 It allows to translate dynamically RDF queries to Prolog queries - which may wrap XML parsing (as it is done in
Chris@0 117 the Jamendo RDF dump), calls to web services, databases, etc.
Chris@0 118 </p>
Chris@0 119 <p>
Chris@0 120 The behavior of this component is also specified through a declarative mapping (the package ships with some mapping
Chris@0 121 examples) between prolog predicates and a set of RDF predicates.
Chris@0 122 </p>
Chris@0 123 <p>
Chris@0 124 For this dataset, the P2R mapping is available <a href="http://moustaki.org/bbc/johnpeel/peel_match.pl">here</a>.
Chris@0 125 It uses a Prolog representation of the John Peel data, available <a href="http://moustaki.org/bbc/johnpeel/swipeel.tar.gz">here</a>.
