[ontolog-forum] accounting inteoperability workshop

["McCarthy, William" <mccarthy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The workshop "Ontological Specification of Interoperability Semantics for Financial Information and Business Reporting Systems" will be held next Monday and Tuesday (the 12^th and 13^th of May) at the Westin Arlington Gateway in Arlington Virginia.  This workshop is sponsored by the National Science Foundation in cooperation with the American Accounting Association and the Department of Accounting & Information Systems at Michigan State University.   

 

The workshop will have 25 participants from various accounting, computer science, and practitioner communities (XBRL, UN-CEFACT, IMF, SEC, IFRS, EPA, ONTOLOG, and academic accounting).  

 

Roger Debreceny (University of Hawai’i) and I are the workshop co-chairs, and we have rewritten the overview document for the workshop:

If people who are hearing about the workshop for the first time think there is a set of ideas or a community of practice that was omitted from our plans, we invite them to submit a position slide (described in the overview document) to me, either before or after the workshop.  Roger and I have 60 days to prepare an overview report for NSF.
