Track Champions, Re: http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ConferenceCall_2012_03_29 You are invited to join us this Thursday at the OntologySummit2012 virtual panel session-12, where our Communique co-lead editors facilitate us, as a community, to review how we would want to frame the message of the communique, review the input from each of the tracks, as synthesized from the focused discourse over the last couple of months or so. Our target is to get to an 'almost final' communique draft that will be made available for community review/comment between April-3 and April-8; which will then allow us to have a final draft before the start of Ontology Summit 2012 Workshop and Symposium on Thursday 12-April-2012, when the communique will be finally reviewed and adopted. = Session Details: = Summit Theme: OntologySummit2012: "Ontology for Big Systems" Session Topic: Organizing the 'Big' Communique OntologySummit2012_Communique co-Lead Editors & Session co-Chairs: - ToddSchneider & AliHashemi Panelists: * All Track Champions and Co-editors of the Communique * OntologySummit2012 Symposium Co-chairs & General Co-chairs == Conference Call Details: == Date: Thursday, 29-March-2012 Start Time: 9:30am PDT / 12:30pm EDT / 6:30pm CEST / 5:30pm BST / 16:30 UTC ref: World Clock - http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=3&day=29&year=2012&hour=9&min=30&sec=0&p1=224 Expected Call Duration: ~2.0 hours Dial-in: Phone (US): +1 (206) 402-0100 ...

We shall look forward to your participation and contribution on Thursday! ********************* Details ************************ This is our 7th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by ONTOLOG, NIST, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD with the support of our co-sponsors. The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: "Ontology for Big Systems." The principal goal of the summit is to bring together and foster collaboration between the ontology community, systems community, and stakeholders of some of "big systems." Together, the summit participants will exchange ideas on how ontological analysis and ontology engineering might make a difference, when applied in these "big systems." We will aim towards producing a series of recommendations describing how ontologies can create an impact; as well as providing illustrations where these techniques have been, or could be, applied in domains such as bioinformatics, electronic health records, intelligence, the smart electrical grid, manufacturing and supply chains, earth and environmental, e-science, cyberphysical systems and e-government. As is traditional with the Ontology Summit series, the results will be captured in the form of a communique, with expanded supporting material provided on the web. The general format of the Ontology Summit comprises of a series of both virtual and face-to-face activities that span about 3 months (January through March or April each year). These activities include a vigorous three-month online discourse on the theme of the Summit, virtual panel discussions, research activities, and so on, which will culminate in a two-day face-to-face workshop and symposium at NIST in Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA on April 12 & 13, 2012. Each year, we collaboratively author and publish a Summit Communique to offer a message from the Summit participants to the world-at-large as a signature activity of the Ontology Summit series. 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 forward this invitation along to colleagues (or your own community mailing lists) who may also find these sessions to be of interest. *RSVP* by emailing Peter Yim at <peter.yim@xxxxxxxx> offline (or add yourself directly to the session page if you are already an Ontolog or Ontology Summit community member) so that we can prepare enough resources to support everyone.
