Presentations from the workshop may be encouraged to be > submitted as extended papers for peer reviewed journal publication. > > > > Themes for the 12th NKOS workshop will be: > > 1) Meaningful Concept Display and Meaningful Visualization of KOS. > Visualization has been an important application domain for KOS and often a > driver for KOS use in Digital Libraries. Reports of innovative demonstrators, > implementation issues and evaluation studies with real users are particularly > welcome. > > 2) KOS-based recommender systems. We are seeing the utilization of KOS-based > search term recommender systems as a semantic hub in DL. The suggestion of > the right meaningful concepts is a mission critical phase for searchers in > modern DL. We want to discuss both perspectives: the consumptive side of the > user and the technical side of DL operators. Reports of practical experience, > implementation issues and evaluation studies are particularly welcome. > > Further timely presentations/demonstrations could be selected from the > following topics: > > 3) Management and integration of multiple vocabulary types, such as > classification systems, thesauri, terminologies, synonym rings etc. > Typologies and spectra of KOS. KOS Registries. > > 4) SKOS extensions. What extensions to SKOS would be needed to cover advanced > mapping and vocabulary integration, additional KOS types and other actual > requirements? > > KOS applications are a regular and important part of NKOS workshops. Example > topics include: > > 5) KOS in e-Research metadata contexts. The intersection between research > data, KOS and Semantic web. > > 6) Social tagging. What is the role of social tagging and informal knowledge > structures versus established KOS? (How) can tagging be guided and informed > by KOS? The possible contribution of social tagging and informal knowledge > structures to constructing / augmenting established KOS. Implications for > social search. > > 7) Users interaction with KOS in the online environment, visualisation issues. > > 8) Quality issues in web-based KOS. How to identify and detect shortcomings > in data quality and what to do to improve KOS on the web? Issues concerning > large metadata sets. Version management. > > 9) KOS and learning. What is required to use KOS effectively to convey > meaning, to assist users to express their information needs to assist in > sensemaking and learning? > > 10) Multilingual and Interdisciplinary KOS applications and tools. > > 11) Specific domains, such as environmental, medical, new application > contexts, etc. > More information on the workshop can be found under > https://www.comp.glam.ac.uk/pages/research/hypermedia/nkos/nkos2013/proposal.html > We hope to see you in Valletta. > Best regards, > Philipp Mayr > > -- > Dr. Philipp Mayr > Team Leader > GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences > Unter Sachsenhausen 6-8, D-50667 Köln, Germany > Tel: + 49 (0) 221 / 476 94 -533 > Email: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> > Web: http://www.gesis.org<http://www.gesis.org/> > > New: SSOAR fulltext repository on DSpace > http://ssoar.info/ > > Sowiport social sciences portal with citation browsing > http://www.gesis.org/sowiport/ > > IRM project funded by DFG > http://www.gesis.org/en/research/external-funding-projects/archive/irm/
