Jeanne, Andy, Charley, Charles, and All on the Organizing Committee, (01)
... Great event last Thursday (2008.05.29). (02)
Just writing to let you know that in addition to the slides and Andy's
POPS demo movie clip, I have also posted the audio archives, podcast,
and a few screenshots from Second Life. (03)
see: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2008_05_29 (04)
Thank you all for a great session ... and, of course, a phenomenal
series. I look forward to our future collaboration. (05)
Best regards. =ppy (06)
P.S. I'll make a routine post to the mailing lists to draw people's
attention to the archives shortly too. =ppy

*REMINDER* (010)
The 8th and concluding event of the joint NASA-Ontolog-KMWG "Ontology
in Knowledge Management and Decision Support (OKMDS)" mini-series is
coming tomorrow - Thursday, 29-May-2008 (starting at 10:30am PDT /
1:30pm
EDT / 17:30 UTC). The session will be chaired by Ms. Jeanne Holm from NASA/JPL. (011)
Speaking at this final episode of the OKMDS mini-series will be Ms.
Jeanne Holm (Chief Knowledge Architect of NASA/JPL) and Mr. Andrew
Schain (Chief Technology Officer at NASA Headquarters). They will
explore with us the connections between ontologies, knowledge
management, and decision support and how are they actually used in
applications at NASA. Come for an overview of the key learnings from
this exciting mini-series that has brought speakers from around the
world and diverse fields, and has spanned almost 8-months. Tomorrow's
interactive discussion will highlight the important findings from each
of the speaker sessions. This session will show how the contributions
of the speakers and all of you in this community can be applied within
an organization. NASA's team will demonstrate using semantic
technologies for expertise location (POPS), how international
ontologies for space are being addressed, and how KM methods and
technologies are being applied for decisions on Earth and Mars. (012)
Similar to other sessions on the OKMDS mini-series, this virtual event
will be offered in our normal 'real world' augmented conference call
settings, and also (simultaneously) at the NASA/JPL Explorer Island in
the "Second Life" 'virtual world' settings. [... The latter is for
those who are familiar with, or who would want to explore the
possibilities of virtual world events. Again, an attendee will be able
to attend the session remotely just by having phone and Internet
access. Slides and audio recording of the session will be made
available after the event too. ] (013)
Join us tomorrow when our invited gurus are expected to share with us,
some of the state-of-the-art research and implementations on
hypermedia discourse that would "make sense" in terms of harnessing
collective knowledge to solve problems or support decisions. (014)
*RSVP* by e-mailing the sender <peter.yim@xxxxxxxx> off-line (if you
aren't already a [kmgov] or Ontolog member, kindly include your name,
affiliation and job title as well) if you are planning to attend and
haven't already responded. (015)
We look forward to having you at the session. Please refer to all
agenda and call-in details on the session page, whose link appears at
the top of this message. (016)
