I vote yes to both Stephen Stead Tel +44 20 8668 3075 Mob +44 7802 755 013 E-mail [email protected] -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of martin Sent: 08 August 2010 20:14 To: crm-sig; Lida Harami Subject: [Crm-sig] New Members, PLEASE VOTE Dear All, I have the pleasure to announce that DAI and CoDArchLab would like to become members of CRM-SIG. PLEASE VOTE by Monday, August 16. Best, martin Arachne is the central object-database <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database> of the German Archaeological Institute <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Archaeological_Institute> (DAI). In 2004 the DAI and the Cologne Digital Archaeology Laboratory (CoDArchLab) at the University of Cologne <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Cologne> (FA) joined the effort to support Arachne as a tool for free internet-based research. This is why the CoDArchLab as well as the DAI, as cooperation partners for the development of Arachne and other archaeological software, do separately apply to become members of the CIDOC-CRM Special Interest Group. The DAI will do this in a separate step, based on the fact that the CIDOC-CRM is the DAIs officially supported metadata-exchange-standard, as it has been established by a decree of the conference of directors. The CoDarchLab is applying by this message. The CoDArchLab is part of the Archaeological Institute of Cologne University and is working in closest cooperation with the Cologne chair for Humanities Computing (Manfred Thaller) as well as with the Computing Center at the University of Cologne (Ulrich Lang). Its main focuses are digital representations of archaeological objects and problems as well as mass-digitalisation of archaeological data, mainly, but not exclusively, from the photographic and research archives of DAI as well as from present excavations of DAI; which, all in all, might constitute the the largest body of documentary material in the archaeological world. This cooperation is based on a contract between DAI and Cologne University and is supported by both institutions. Furthermore, the philosphical faculty of Cologne University has funded an Archaeo-Informatic-Pool of 30 clients, one Server and a host of specialized software inside of the rooms of the CoDArchLab to support the archaeoinformatic work performed by the institutions quoted above. Reinhard Foertsch (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinhard_Förtsch; http://www.klassarchaeologie.uni-koeln.de/?q=node/86) is a professor in Classical Archaeology and the head of the CoDArchLab. He specialized in digital representations of archaeological concepts and their consequences on Classical Archaeology. --------------------- -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Martin Doerr | Vox:+30(2810)391625 | Research Director | Fax:+30(2810)391638 | | Email: [email protected] | | Center for Cultural Informatics | Information Systems Laboratory | Institute of Computer Science | Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH) | | Vassilika Vouton,P.O.Box1385,GR71110 Heraklion,Crete,Greece | | Web-site: http://www.ics.forth.gr/isl | -------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Crm-sig mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ics.forth.gr/mailman/listinfo/crm-sig _______________________________________________ Crm-sig mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ics.forth.gr/mailman/listinfo/crm-sig
