This "Ontology in Knowledge Management and Decision Support
(OKMDS)" mini-series is a collaboration between NASA and Ontolog,
and is co-organized by a team of individuals from various related
communities passionate about creating the opportunity for an
inter-community, collaborative exploration of the intersection
between Ontology, Knowledge Management and Decision Support, that
could eventually lead us toward "Better Decision Making." (06)
The mini-series will span a period of about six months (Nov-2007
to May-2008), during which we will be featuring Talks, Panel
Discussions and Online Discourse on pertinent issues. We expect
all the talks and panel discussion events to be offered in both
'real world' (augmented conference calls) and 'virtual world'
