| Summary: | "This book confronts the challenges necessary to make wide and diverse data in linguistics and the language sciences open, distributed, integrated and accessible, thus fostering wide data sharing and collaboration. It collects reports by international scholars of current advancements in various components of the technology and conceptual foundations of Linked Open Data in Linguistics (LLOD); and integrates these with reports by researchers producing complex language data, content which requires an infrastructure for data sharing and cross-linguistic collaboration in order to address advanced scientific questions in the field. Twenty four scholars are represented. Acquisition of multilingualism is used as an example. In this way this book begins to build a community at the interface of specific research needs in the language sciences and operative LOD engineering, merging the social and technical aspects necessary to advancing the vision of LLOD in linguistics and the language sciences. Although there are volumes in the field available now on data, big data, and LOD and to a lesser degree, on LLOD (linguistic linked open data), there are none that combine both the work of the language researcher and that of the technical LOD researcher and attempt to integrate these. Furthermore, to some degree, the work of European scholars in this domain has not received significant dissemination in the US, before this volume"-- |
