Proceedings: OKMDS session-06 - Thu 2008.04.17    (01)


The 6th event of our "Ontology in Knowledge Management and 
Decision Support (OKMDS)" mini-series of activities representing 
a NASA-Ontolog-KMWG collaboration took place on Thursday 
17-April-2008.    (02)

Entitled: "Knowledge Mapping for Sensemaking," the session was 
co-chaired by Mr. Peter Yim (Ontolog; CIM3) and Ms. Jeanne
Holm (NASA/JPL). On the invited speakers panel were: Dr. Jeffrey 
Conklin (CogNexus Institute), Dr. Simon Buckingham Shum (KMi, The 
Open University, UK), Mr. Eric Yeh (SRI) and Mr. Jack Park (SRI). 
  Together, this expert panel represented some of the most 
sophisticated work in dialog mapping and hypermedia discourse. 
Our panelists were most generous in sharing with us their latest 
work and insight.    (03)

A huge "thank you" goes to to all the panelists as well as to 
everyone who was able to join us at the session. Proceedings of 
the session has been captured on our wiki page, at:
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2008_04_17    (04)

In particular, screen-shots from our virtual world venue are now 
available. So are the full audio recording and the podcast of the 
session. Therefore, if you had missed the event or would like to 
revisit it again, please refer to details at:

*REMINDER*    (010)

The 6th event of the joint NASA-Ontolog-KMWG "Ontology in 
Knowledge Management and Decision Support (OKMDS)" mini-series is 
coming tomorrow - Thursday, 20-March-2008 (starting at 10:30am 
PDT / 1:30pm
EDT / 17:30 UTC).    (011)

Presenting at this episode of the OKMDS mini-series will be Dr. 
Jeff Conklin (CogNexus), Dr. Simon Buckingham Shum (KMi), Mr. 
Eric Yeh (SRI) & Mr. Jack Park (SRI), with Ms. Jeanne Holm 
(NASA/JPL) and Mr. Peter Yim co-chairing the session.    (012)

As the other session 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 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)



Regards,    (017)
