"SHARING THE KNOWLEDGE"

International CIDOC CRM Symposium
March 26 2003 2:00 - 6:00
March 27 2003 9:00 - 5:00

The CIDOC CRM Special Interest Group  and the Smithsonian Institution
invite you to a two-day International Symposium designed to bring
together researchers and practitioners in information provision and
exchange, be it within organizations or on the envisaged Semantic Web,
in the area of scientific and cultural heritage, with the goal to
present and discuss technical, organizational, and philosophical issues
of effectively sharing knowledge among museums, libraries, and archives
and integrating information within cultural institutions.

The program will comprise invited talks, submitted papers, and panel
discussions.
Paper submissions are welcome on the following topics:
- scalable knowledge sharing architectures for intra-organizational
data;
- scalable knowledge sharing architectures for the Internet;
- key components for knowledge sharing: ontologies, contextual
information,
     identification, persistence;
- documentation practices enabling effective knowledge sharing;
- metadata schemes for cross-domain searching;
- success stories of knowledge sharing;
- social, organizational, and technical factors;
- the role of trust in knowledge sharing.

A panel discussion will identify key directions for research and
advocacy for the
immediate future to bring us closer to shared and integrated knowledge
in contemporary society.

All contributions will be Web-published on the CIDOC CRM Web-site
(http://cidoc.ics.forth.gr).

Presentations may be 15 minutes or 30 minutes.

The Program committee reserves the right to refuse submissions.
Proposals, accompanied by an abstract of 100-300 words, and short cv,
should be sent to Dr. Martin Doerr, (martin@ics.forth.gr) by November
30, 2002.

The Symposium will be held at the Smithsonian's International Center in
Washington, D.C.  Attendance will be free and light refreshments will be
provided.  Participants are responsible for their own travel,
accommodation, and meal costs.
