Tobias Schweizer, The Bernoulli-Euler Online Platform (BEOL) and its RESTful API

Digital Humanities Lab, University of Basel


The project Bernoulli-Euler Online (BEOL) integrates several edition projects relating to the Bernoulli and Leonhard Euler into one platform available on the web, offering a multilayer access to the user (facsimiles, transcriptions, critical texts, translations, indices, and commentaries).

BEOL is implemented within Knora, a generic system based on RDF to store and work with humanities data. Knora offers a RESTful API that can be used to access BEOL’s contents, including the edited texts.


Ernest Suyver, Brill Scholarly Editions

Brill

In the context of DTS, Brill is developing the Scaife Viewer into a generic open source publication platform; publication being one step in a larger process of content processing and distribution. (https://dh.brill.com/scholarlyeditions/)


Francisco Mondaca, Introducing the VedaWeb APIs

Cologne Center of eHumanities, University of Cologne

VedaWeb is a web-based, open-access platform for linguistic research on Old Indic texts. It provides access to texts and dictionaries through a web application as also APIs for direct access to data encoded in TEI-XML. The focus of this presentation is to show the structure of these APIs and to discuss the potential implementation of DTS in this project.


Matt Munson, CTS to DTS in the ‘Formulae - Litterae - Chartae’ Project

Formulae - Litterae - Chartae Langzeitvorhaben, Universität Hamburg

The “Formulae - Litterae - Chartae” project has developed its corpus and reading environmentbased on the current version of the CapiTainS tool suite and, especially, MyCapytain version 2.0, which is an implementation of the Canonical Text Services API. As CapiTainS moves toward the more general DTS standard, our project is planning to make both its corpus and its tools compatible with this new standard. This talk will reflect on the reasons for this change and the changes we will make to our corpus to fully embrace this new standard.


Pietro Luzzo, The DTS implementation for Beta maṣāḥǝft

Hiob Ludolf Centre for Ethiopian and Eritrean Studies, Universität Hamburg

Beta maṣāḥǝft is a long-term project funded under survey of the Akademie der Wissenschaften in Hamburg from 2016–2040. To achieve its aims of creating a virtual research environment that shall manage complex data related to the predominantly Christian manuscript tradition of the Ethiopian and Eritrean Highlands, the project has implemented DTS. The API https://betamasaheft.eu/api/dts serves all the available texts as editions or transcriptions of manuscripts, using dts:extensions to achieve a non hierarchical structuring of the corpus.


Stefan Dumont Texts and APIs in digital editions of correspondence and diaries

Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften



We are also pleased to be able to host 6 lightning talks (5 minutes apiece) that deal with DTS and how you might use it with your own data. We can allocate a travel bursary of a fixed amount of 300 Euros to those participants who give such talks and might need such a bursary. Please register at the registration link above by 1 July if you would like to give a Lightning Talk, tick the relevant box if you would need a bursary and we will let you know as soon as possible thereafter if your Lightning Talk has been accepted and if you have been awarded a bursary.
