The Ferryman

Womenware

I have been fortunate to have had numerous interesting and engaging conversations with Dana Winner during our recent work together in the Middle East. I anticipate an interesting and stimulating read in her new book just out called "Womenware". See http://www.amazon.com/Hardware-Software-Womenware-ebook/dp/B005NW1WVG/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1316365083&sr=1-1 for details on the Kindle version. I have just been able to download a version to a reader on my laptop. Now I just need some more reflective space and reading time!

OpenTox 1.0 - what we have reached on its third birthday

 


On the eve of its 3rd birthday, I told the story so far of our development of OpenTox in Slovenia last week.

The lecture (slides and video) recorded at the Josef Stefan institute in Ljubljana on "OpenTox - the creation of a semantic web for toxicology" is available at:

I look forward to that future "Sixth Sense" journey interoperating with OpenTox to revisit the Tamboti Trees in South Africa and the Mopane Trees in Namibia, and to test the delivery of safety advice from the distributed semantic knowledge of OpenTox 3.0 use cases in the field :)!
