As we are not the only people thinking about these topics, there has already been a lot of work in this area. It is relatively easy to find some half-baked implementations in RDF, e.g. datahub.io, joi

Thanks Matteo- It is a bit tricky keeping the class definitions and instances inline with the idea of `rdf:type` referring to multiple classes - could you provide an alternative implementation of the

@Matteo, Bo, Miguel; please comment and correct! Defining correspondence tables in RDF Based on my reading of https://www.w3.org/TR/skos-reference/, I created the following: @prefix bont: <http://onto

Thanks Miguel- It seems clear to me that the first step should be defining the verbs we will use, and the reasons we are using these particular verbs. For example, both OWL and SKOS seem to offer simi

(This message is mostly for Carlos :) I think it would make sense to separate the pumped hydro optimization model from the `bentso` code, as they are really two libraries aimed at two different things

Dear all- I am happy that there are a number of people participating here, and I think we have everything ready for assembly into a 1.0 version of this package. However, from reading these emails and

Sorry to post something somewhat off-topic, but this statement is not correct - peer-reviewed publications can absolutely be developed in the open, and even some vintage pay-for-access journals such a

Prefixes like `act` don't really work, as the expansion is specific to exiobase; I have been using brdfexat (Bonsai RDF exiobase activity type), and similar, see https://github.com/BONSAMURAIS/bontofr

Dear all- The python library skeleton is nearing its first release, and we need people to test it. You don't need to write a real library, just a very small fake one, and try to follow the instruction

We will be able to talk about this soon in person, which should be helpful as we might be going a bit in circles. In any case, here are my contributions to the dance: 1. Identifying potential biospher

This is a great comment, and is to me a perfect example of how people's experience leads them to accept restraints without even realizing it. 1. Mathematically, we don't need to distinguish between te

EXIOBASE doesn't really have capacity factors, as in general it does a poor job of modelling capital expenditures. But we could use this to update the relative shares of the different technologies sup

Dear all- The hackathon is coming soon, and there are still a few things we need to lock down. Please read the following carefully. If you come to Barcelona unprepared, we will be sad... 1. Please rea

This is better directed to #reproduciblemodels - this working group is a subtask of that one, mostly just to get a solid technical foundation before the hackathon.

This is, of course, correct, though it does help clarify things for me. However, perhaps this needs a different conceptual approach? Perhaps something like a resolved exchange, which has isInputOf *an

This is a very important question! The following is my opinion, and other might have a different perspective. Questions over what can really substitute for what (e.g. for coal this is sulfur content,
