The Hasso Plattner Institute offers degree programs in “IT Systems Engineering” that are unique Germany-wide. It is a practical form of computer science study that places special emphasis on the conception and development of complex software systems. The education at Hasso Plattner Institute is tuition free.

Research in HPI’s topic areas is carried out in Potsdam and internationally at the Hasso Plattner Institute Research School. It is distinguished by its high scientific standard, practical approach and close cooperation with industry. The primary focus of HPI’s research is on highly complex IT systems.

Hasso Plattner Institute holds an unique position on the landscape of German universities. Research and teaching are concentrated in the area of IT systems engineering. The highly ranked Bachelor, Master and PhD degree programs have a high practical and innovation orientation. Design Thinking spans a bridge between Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam and Hasso Plattner Institute of Design in Stanford.

The Hasso Plattner Institute has educational programs for both high school students and working professionals. It operates its own IT learning platform - openHPI - which provides free online courses. The Youth Academy organizes computer science camps and events for high school students. Professionals can take advantage of educational opportunities in the field of Design Thinking at the HPI Academy.

The Hasso Plattner Institute is respected and recognized far beyond its Potsdam borders. The public relations department is happy to answer questions and provide information about HPI activities.

Description

Semantic Web Technologien wie RDF, OWL und SPARQL ermöglichen die Entwicklung verteilter Dienste, ohne dazu neue Schnittstellen und Protokolle einführen zu müssen. Durch die „Linked Open Data“ Initiative wurden so bereits zahlreiche populäre Datenbanken (z.B. die

Wikipedia, <link http:="" musicbrainz.org="" _blank="" external-link-new-window="" "opens="" external="" link="" in="" new="" window"="" />MusicBrainz, <link http:="" www.bbc.co.uk="" programmes="" _blank="" external-link-new-window="" "opens="" external="" link="" in="" new="" window"="" />BBC Programmes, <link http:="" www.yovisto.com="" _blank="" external-link-new-window="" "opens="" external="" link="" in="" new="" window"="" />yovisto.com) via RDF als Linked Data im Semantic Web publiziert und miteinander verknüpft. Diese offenen Quellen erlauben es, neue innovative Applikationen und Mesh-Ups auf einfache Weise zu erstellen. In diesem Seminar wird die Erzeugung und Nutzung von Linked Open Data anhand praktischer Implementierungsaufgaben vorgestellt und vertieft. Dazu sollen Dienste zu bereits bestehenden Multimedia-Plattformen (<link http:="" www.yovisto.com="" _blank="" external-link-new-window="" "opens="" external="" link="" in="" new="" window"="" />yovisto.com) entwickelt und verbessert werden, die ohne den Einsatz semantischer Technologien nur schwer realisierbar sind.
