Sage Journals: Discover world-class research

Abstract

The Lattes Platform is a web-based system that brings together the academic, professional and scientific histories of students, teachers, researchers and other professionals linked to scientific and technological careers. The data are entered by users themselves and are the subject of much research and forecasting in relation to how educational resources are directed in Brazil. In this paper, we report our experience in applying the Linked Data principles to this system. We have also demonstrated the potential of federated queries using data from DBPedia.
