STAR Publications
STAR – Project
STAR is an AHRC funded project (2007-2010, £222,139), in collaboration with English Heritage and the Royal School of Library and Information Science Denmark, applying semantic and knowledge-based technologies to the digital archaeology domain. The project aims to develop new methods for linking digital archive databases, vocabularies and the associated grey literature, exploiting the potential of a high level, core ontology and natural language processing techniques. Doug Tudhope is PI and Ceri Binding is the Research Fellow on the project. Andreas Vlachidis and Renato Souza are project members within the Hypermedia Research Unit.
