Subject: [xtm-wg] announcement: WISE 2001/TOMA (December 3-6, 2001)
Proposal For Workshop in Conjunction with WISE 2001 The 2nd International Conference on Web Information Systems Engineering Kyoto, Japan 3.-6. December http://www.isse.kuis.kyoto-u.ac.jp/wise01 Topic Maps (TOMA) The ISO standard ISO/IEC 13250:2000 Topic Maps (topic map standard) defines an abstract model for semantically structured, self-describing link networks laid over a pool of addressable information objects (topic maps) as a basic architecture within the following scope of applications: * To qualify the content of information objects in order to enable navigational tools such as indexes, cross-references, citation systems, or glossaries. * To link pieces of information together for the purpose of enabling navigation between them, e.g. for creating thesaurus-like hypertext interfaces for corporate information and knowledge bases. * To filter views of information adapted for specific users and/or purposes, e.g. to define partial views depending on user profiles and/or knowledge domains. * To structure unstructured information objects or to combine unstructured information bases with structured ones in a way that an arbitrary structure is imposed without altering its original form. The standard further specifies a serialization syntax as the interchange format of topic maps based on the ISO standard HyTime by means of a meta Document Type Definition (DTD). The workshop TOMA aims at being an international forum for the presentation of both theoretical and applicative results. Papers describing application experiences are particularly encouraged. Papers presented will deal with, but not limited to, the following areas: * Knowledge Management * Semantic Web * Ontologies * Knowledge Sharing * Global Knowledge Interchange Chair: A Min Tjoa (Technical University of Vienna, Austria) Co-Chairs: Josef Küng (University of Linz, Austria) N.
