Abstract

This paper describes our experience developing a semantically-rich
exploratory interface that integrates a suite of Newsfilm media sources and
associated information. Indeed, the affordances for real time, direct
manipulation queries provided by the UI have driven the engineering challenges
to support such queries across the network. In this paper we review our efforts
first to use strictly semantic web technologies, then hybrid database with
semantic web wrapper technologies, and now, ultimately, standard database
technologies for real time dynamic queries. We consider how the lessons
learned about performance design to support such rich queries will need to be
addressed in semantic web technologies in order to better support thsemantic exploratory experience across distributed data resources.
