Abstract

Decision support systems get more useful as they manage to make decisions more informed. However, the cost of information and of combining and making it available in the appropriate context make this a tricky trade-off. Fortunately, Semantic Web technologies make it possible to easily publish and reuse data. But this is not simple data, it is semantic data, which makes it easier to query, browse and combine it. Apart from semantic data, it is also important a user interface that carries all this potential to the user. Rhizomer is a framework for semantic data publishing and user interaction that facilitates building semantic dashboards. It is possible, for instance, to build a simple dashboard on top of semantic data generated from financial reports and incorporate web services that provide specialised ways to interact with semantic data, like showing geo-located resources in a map or events in a timeline.
