[Karl Dietz]

      Networked Knowledge Organization Systems/Services (NKOS)

The 6th European NKOS Workshop will take place on September 21st, as
part of ECDL 2007 in Budapest. It builds on the previous NKOS Workshops
at ECDL 2000, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. Proposals are invited for
presentations (typically 20 minutes plus discussion time, potentially
longer if the substance and importance warrant it) on work or projects
related to the themes of the workshop or to NKOS more generally.

Presentations from the Workshop may be invited to submit as extended
papers to the electronic peer reviewed journal: Journal of Digital
Information, JoDI (http://jodi.tamu.edu/ <http://jodi.tamu.edu/> ).

Please email proposals (approx. 500 words including aims, methods, main
findings) by June 29th to Douglas Tudhope (dstudhope at glam.ac.uk
<mailto:dstudhope at glam.ac.uk> ). Advance indication that you intend to
submit a presentation would be helpful. Proposals will be peer-reviewed
by the program committee and notification of acceptance will be given by
July 17th. The early registration deadline for the conference and the
workshop is July 31st.

The workshop aims to address key challenges for NKOS posed by the
overlapping themes of

Social tagging
Semantic Web applications and implications of KOS
Terminology for language-oriented applications
Terminology registry
Terminology services
KOS Interoperability
User-centred design issues


Other NKOS related topics can also be proposed and more details can be
