Linked Open Data (LOD) is a pragmatic approach for realizing the Semantic Web vision of making the Web a global, distributed, semantics-based information system. This book presents an overview on the results of the research project “LOD2 -- Creating Knowledge out of Interlinked Data”. LOD2 is a large-scale integrating project co-funded by the European Commission within the FP7 Information and Communication Technologies Work Program. Commencing in September 2010, this 4-year project comprised leading Linked Open Data research groups, companies, and service providers from across 11 European countries and South Korea. The aim of this project was to advance the state-of-the-art in research and development in four key areas relevant for Linked Data, namely 1. RDF data management; 2. the extraction, creation, and enrichment of structured RDF data; 3. the interlinking and fusion of Linked Data from different sources and 4. the authoring, exploration and visualization of Linked Data.

The Oxford Handbook of Criminal Process surveys the topics and issues in the field of criminal process, including the laws, institutions, and practices of the criminal justice administration. The process begins with arrests or with crime investigation such as searches for evidence. It continues through trial or some alternative form of adjudication such as plea bargaining that may lead to conviction and punishment, and it includes post-conviction events such as appeals and various procedures for addressing miscarriages of justice. Across more than 40 chapters, this Handbook provides a descriptive overview of the subject sufficient to serve as a durable reference source, and more importantly to offer contemporary critical or analytical perspectives on those subjects by leading scholars in the field. Topics covered include history, procedure, investigation, prosecution, evidence, adjudication, and appeal.

O chamado “direito associativo” cobre uma multiplicidade de realidades que aparecem modeladas a partir do regime traçado para as associações com personalidade jurídica, em desenho que, no essencial, precedeu a Constituição da República Portuguesa. Dada a expansão de leituras que tendem a aproximar os tipos associativos dos tipos societários, assume especial relevância, tanto na sua dimensão política, quanto na sua dimensão jurídico-formal, a fixação da inexistência de fins lucrativos nas associações, enquanto traço diferenciador das pessoas coletivas e enquanto elemento que caracterizará também as associações sem personalidade jurídica. Com a parcimónia subjacente à regulação legal que incide sobre as associações sem personalidade jurídica a abrir espaço para o vislumbre de soluções datadas e de disposições legais que, no plano tipológico, se mostram falhas de congruência, o livro, para lá da dissecação dos problemas suscitáveis a propósito deste modelo de organização de interesses, procura também dar notoriedade à profunda revisão que o regime português sobre associações convoca.
