Dear ALL,    (01)


We had a really wonderful and information packed session today. I am
writing to let everyone know that the full proceedings of the session
- abstract, slides to all 10 presentation, audio recording, in session
chat-transcript, attendee roster, etc. - are all available online now.
As usual, just look under the "Archives"section of the session page
at: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2013_03_28    (02)

The Seven (7) Hackathon-Clinics projects will be rolling out,
virtually, over the next three weekends, starting this Saturday. Each
will feature an "open webcast" segment as well. Since participants are
spread out around the globe, each project will run on its own set of
start- and end-time. The "open webcast" segments will be staggered.
These would be 1 Hr. 45 min. mini-session that would be run somewhat
(same facilities and setting) like our nominal virtual sessions. They
could be especially interesting for those who might just want to
"lurk" (or observe first, before deciding whether or not to get
involved) and a person can actually participate in all seven of them
(if he/she wants to.)    (03)

Three go-to places, if you are interested (please make a note of them):    (04)

1. the Hackathon-Clinics program homepage is at:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2013_Hackathon_Clinics
... the homepage for each of the seven projects are accessible if you
click on their respective project name.    (05)

2. the Master Schedule (calendar and schedule of events), and in
particular, the timing of the "open webcast" segments, can be found
under: 
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2013_Hackathon_Clinics#nid3PG4    (06)

3. the main Chat-room (for ALL Projects) is:
http://webconf.soaphub.org/conf/room/summit_hackathon ... this will be
online when any project is in session, and all participants should
join into this chat-room first (and stay there) when participating or
observing. Each project will have their own chat-workspace (or even
subgroup chat-workspace) ... project champions shall keep access
information (chat-rooms, skype or other facilities) available both at
the main chat-room, as well as their respective project homepage.    (07)


YOU ARE INVITED! ... Sign yourself up (near top of each project
homepage) ... or just drop-in!    (08)


Enjoy the Hackathon & Clinics!    (09)

Abstract:    (056)

This is our 9th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by NIST, Ontolog,
NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD with the support of our co-sponsors. The
theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: "Ontology Evaluation Across
the Ontology Lifecycle."    (057)

Currently, there is no agreed methodology for development of
ontologies, and there are no universally agreed metrics for ontology
evaluation. At the same time, everybody agrees that there are a lot of
badly engineered ontologies out there, thus people use -- at least
implicitly -- some criteria for the evaluation of ontologies.    (058)

During this OntologySummit, we seek to identify best practices for
ontology development and evaluation. We will consider the entire
lifecycle of an ontology -- from requirements gathering and analysis,
through to design and implementation. In this endeavor, the Summit
will seek collaboration with the software engineering and knowledge
acquisition communities. Research in these fields has led to several
mature models for the software lifecycle and the design of
knowledge-based systems, and we expect that fruitful interaction among
all participants will lead to a consensus for a methodology within
ontological engineering. Following earlier Ontology Summit practice,
the synthesized results of this season's discourse will be published
as a Communique.    (059)

At the Launch Event on 17 Jan 2013, the organizing team provided an
overview of the program, and how we will be framing the discourse
around the theme of of this OntologySummit. Today's session is one of
the events planned.    (060)

In this 11th virtual panel session of the Summit, we are launching the
OntologySummit2013 Hackathon & Clinics program, a series of activities
that will take place over the 3 coming weekends. Seven (7)
Hackathon-Clinics projects with particular relevance to the
OntologySummit and/or this year's "Ontology Evaluation" theme were
identified from among the proposals received, and will be featured
virtually on Mar-30, Apr-6 and Apr-13. During this session, we will
hear about this Hackathon-Clinics; its objectives, what each featured
project will entail, the calendar, schedule, process, facilities and
expert consultation support and other relevant details.    (061)

Besides the collaborators who have signed up to participate in these
projects, the program is open to all who are interested. Drop-in
participants are welcome to participate or observe as these
Hackathon-Clinics projects take place. Find out the details today, and
come join us when these projects are featured!    (062)


******************    (063)

These sessions, like all Ontolog virtual events, are open and free of
charge. Anyone who is interested, or (better still) who may have
something to contribute, is welcome. Please refer to event details on
the session pages, to which the hyperlink is given above, where you
will find session agenda, conference call dial-in, slides and other
pertinent information. Feel free to pass this invitation along to
colleagues who may also find these sessions to be of interest.    (064)

*RSVP* by emailing Peter Yim at <peter.yim@xxxxxxxx> offline (or add
yourself directly to the session page if you are already an Ontolog or
Ontology Summit community member) so that we can prepare enough
resources to support everyone. [Please state clearly the date of the
session you are registering for in your email.] ... All respondents
will be subscribed (if they aren't already so) to the
[ontology-summit] mailing list so they are participate in the virtual
discourse.    (065)

These sessions will be recorded and made available in a publicly
accessible archive. Therefore, before participating, please make sure
you are cognizant of our IPR policy (ref:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?WikiHomePage#nid32).    (066)
