   * The {{:teaching:infoh509:1-intro-webarch.pdf|slides}}
-==== Lecture 2: XML, XPath, and JSON ===
-Lecture 2 has introduced XML and XPath in depth.
-**Required reading:**
-  * Chapter 2 and chapter 3 (except section 3.6) in the book
-  * The {{:teaching:infoh509:2-xml-xpath.pdf|corresponding slides}}.
-==== Lecture 3: XML Schema Languages: DTDs ===
-Lecture 3 has introduced (1) the motivation behind XML Schema Languages, (2) syntax and
-semantics of DTDs, and (3) regular expressions.
-See pages 92-113 in the book as well as the {{:teaching:infoh509:3-xml_schemas.pdf|corresponding slides}}.
-==== Lecture 4: XML Schema Languages: XSDs ===
-In Lecture 4, we have discussed the limitations of DTDs. Some of these
-limitations are lifted by XML Schema, whose syntax and semantics were studied during lecture 4.
-See pages 113-158 in the book as well as the
-{{:teaching:infoh509:4-xml_schemas_part_2.pdf|corresponding slides}}.
-The example XML Schema files used during the theory lecture is also {{:teaching:infoh509:xml-schema-demo.zip|available for download.}}
-==== Project Assignment 1: XML Schema Definition ====
-Construct an XML Schema Definition for the information recorded by a
-bookshop ({{:teaching:infoh509:un_en.pdf|full assignment}}).
-This assignment is to be made in groups of
-two persons and contributes 2/20 to the overall grade (there are two
-more assignments to follow, each contributing 2/20). The written exam
-contributes the remaining 14/20 points.
-See the full assignment for related dealine(s), what the solution should entail, and to whom it should be submitted).
-<note tip>You can use these simple  {{:teaching:infoh509:validationtools.zip|validation tools}} (written in Java) to help check if your example documents conform toyour XSD. Unzip the file, and then use either ''java -jar DTDValidator.jar <xmldoc>'' or ''java -jar XSDValidator.jar <schemadoc> <xmldoc>'' to validate. The third jar file contains the source code, should you be interested.</note>
-==== Lecture 5: Transforming XML documents with XSLT ===
-In Lecture 5 we have discussed how XML documents can be transformed
-into other formats (be it XML or not) using XSLT. See pages 188-239 in
-the book (**except sections 5.8.5, 5.8.7, 5.8.9, 5.8.10 and 5.11**) and
-the {{:teaching:infoh509:5-xslt.pdf|corresponding slides}}.
-==== Project Assignment 2: XSLT ====
-Write a single XSLT 2.0 stylesheet that generates, starting from the
-dblp-excerpt.xml file, a number of HTML files that together
-collectively emulates part of the DBLP website. Read the
-{{:teaching:infoh509:deux_en.pdf|full assignment}}, and download the
-corresponding {{:teaching:infoh509:deux_xslt_data.zip|support files}}.
-This assignment is to be made in groups of
-two persons and contributes 2/20 to the overall grade (there are two
-more assignments to follow, each contributing 2/20). The written exam
-contributes the remaining 14/20 points.
-See the full assignment for related dealine(s), what the solution should entail, and to whom it should be submitted.
-<note tip>The zip file above contains a XSLT transformation tool. You can use ''java -jar xslt-tool.jar <xslt-file> <inputfile> <outputfile>'' to run it. </note>
-==== Lecture 6: Querying XML documents with XQuery ===
-In Lecture 6 we have discussed how XML documents can be queried and transformed into other formats (be it XML or not) using XQuery. See pages 240-2840 in the book (**except sections 6.7.5, 6.8, 6.9**) and
-the {{:teaching:infoh509:6-xquery.pdf|corresponding slides}}.
-==== Project Assignment 3: XQuery ====
-You are requested to write XQuery programs for several queries against
-the DBLP bibliographical database introduced in Project Assignment
-. Read the
-{{:teaching:infoh509:trois_en.pdf|full assignment}}, and download the
-corresponding {{:teaching:infoh509:trois_xquery_data.zip|support files}}.
-This assignment is to be made in groups of
-two persons and contributes 2/20 to the overall grade (there are two
-more assignments to follow, each contributing 2/20). The written exam
-contributes the remaining 14/20 points.
-See the full assignment for related dealine(s), what the solution should entail, and to whom it should be submitted).
-==== Lecture 7: RDF and RDF schema====
-In lecture 7 we have introduced the RDF data model, its serialization formats, and basics of RDF Schema.
-**Required reading:**
-The {{:teaching:infoh509:7-rdf.pdf|lecture slides}}, the [[http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-primer/|RDF 1.1 Primer]], and these [[https://davinci.ulb.ac.be/index.php/s/LRC7JqZrJPkpQKP|course notes]] (password protected).
-**Recommended (but optional) reading:**
-In addition, it is recommended to read the [[http://www.w3.org/TR/turtle/|RDF 1.1. Turtle Syntax]] specification (sections 1-3) and the [[http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-rdf-syntax-grammar-20140225/|RDF 1.1. XML Syntax]]specification (only section 2) to get the best overview of the RDF serialization formats. In addition, the {{:teaching:infoh509:semantic-web.pdf|original semantic web article}}  is a good read to get an insight into the original motivation for the semantic web.
-==== Lecture 8: OWL and SPARQL ====
-In lecture 8 we introduce the Web Ontology Language (OWL), which adds advanced inferencing capabilities to RDF.
-**Required reading:**
-The {{:teaching:infoh509:8-owl.pdf|lecture slides on owl}} and these [[https://davinci.ulb.ac.be/index.php/s/FpfYNZNzPLp8rF6|course notes]] (password protected).
-===== Practical Sessions =====
-  * {{:teaching:infoh509:infoh509_01_1617.zip|Practical session 1}}
-You can test your Xpath query in the folder containing saxon9he.jar with the following command:
-java -cp "saxon9he.jar" net.sf.saxon.Query -s:"<sourcefile>" -qs:'<query>' -o:"<outputfile>"
-  * {{:teaching:infoh509_tp2_1819.zip|Practical session 2}}
