Jim Hendler and his students represented the Computing Research Association at the 11th annual Coalition for National Science Funding science exhibition and reception in Washington DC this week. At the event, universities and scientific associations showcase NSF supported research for members of the US Congress and their staff to maintain awareness of the importance of NSF support for US research. Jim’s demonstration of the potential of the semantic web was a big success. See Peter Harsha’s CRA blog for a good write up with pictures.
