Coping with public and private transport since 2001
It’s just one of those times in your life as a student this week: the final week is neigh so the professors are or have been contemplating the final deliverables and our professor for the seminar is no exception to this rule. In today’s session, which has been held plenary with all groups. Yes, all three of them. The deliverables
Continue readingYesterday was our session with our professor, and although one of my teammembers had to be somewhere else, it turned out to be a pretty useful session after all. To get back to my previous post: the professor was slightly disturbed by our questions, and I felt like we offended him as he asked us whether we questioned not only
Continue readingTomorrow, the seminar-class has been canceled as our professor is attending a seminar of his own. It has been rescheduled to Thursday I’ll come back to that then. While our professor is currently out of town, and even out of our country, we’ve stumbled upon several important questions regarding the transformation of XBRL into OWL, and thus ontologies. Due to
Continue readingDealing with several packages of software, most of them currently available under public licences is an art, and most definately an underestimated knowledge. As most software runs on JAVA, which is not a bad thing, the VM very often needs some modifications to be fully up to speed. With my 1Gb of RAM I’m currently experiencing quite a lot ‘out

(And he is right too! 😀 ) Anyway, today we had the group-session in which the semi-definitive object became clearer. As an assignment for again a group session next week we are to fiddle about with several programs and some
Continue readingTomorrow is a big day in the seminar: it’s the day the groups (3 in total) all have separate, semi-individual while in a group, sessions with our professor. Here, we have to lay out our strategy to tackle the problem posed in the first part of the class: How to translate an XBRL-document into an OWL-document. We’ve been reading a
Continue readingAs I mentioned in a few posts, both earlier, I was and still am about to release the documents we created during our seminar. This day, it is just that time! XML Guide – Basics for understanding XBRL – v1.0 The Definitive XBRL Guide v1.0 OWL Guide – A complete overview v0.5 Note that, in an attempt to re-enact total
Continue readingWow, that was quick! Only a few short hours after I sent the email I mentioned to E&Y, I already got an answer: I was the first one to notice the lacking of some pages. They immediately sent me (in PDF) the concerned chapters and I’m feeling happy with my (now complete) XBRL book. Thanks for the swift reply E&Y!
Continue readingI know it’s inappropriate to have comments on something that was supplied without any charge, but I’d very much like to make an exception here. Remember my gift? Turns out it’s incomplete. Being for free it should be complete, or at least nearly complete, but out of the 100 pages, there’s a staggering 16 missing: 10 t/m 15 20 t/m
Continue readingToday was one of the biggest days in this trimester so far, I’ve had to hand in 5 deliverables today of which 3 were for the seminar. The other two were for another course, Managment Control & ICT, which had 1 assignment to be completed by us individually and one in a group. And frankly, they suck. No, not my
