********************* Details ************************ (015)
This is our 5th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by NIST, Ontolog,
NCOR, NCBO and IAOA with the support of our co-sponsors. The theme
adopted for this Summit is: "Creating the Ontologists of the Future"
and was launched on 10-Dec-2009. Like previous years, this Ontology
Summit will comprise of three months of virtual discourse, over our
archived mailing lists, wiki, and virtual panel sessions (like this
one), and will culminate in a 2-day face-to-face workshop/symposium to
be held on Mon & Tue, 15 & 16-March-2010 at NIST (Gaithersburg,
Maryland, USA.) (016)
In the upcoming 14-Jan-2010 panel session-2, entitled: "What's in the
Brain of an Ontologist -- The Strawman's Proposal," our co-chairs,
Professor Michael Gruninger and Dr. Leo Obrst will present a strawman
on what we would be expected an ontologist to know. They have
assembled an expert panel of educators, trainers and employers of
ontologists, as well as practicing professional ontologists, will then
take turns to provide their input regarding the proposed (strawman)
"content" and share their insights on the topic. The session will then
be opened to all participants for Q&A and discussion with the
co-chairs and the panel. (017)
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. (018)
*RSVP* by emailing Peter Yim at <peter.yim@xxxxxxxx> offline with your
