Hello everyone,    (06)

we are getting ready to start Ontology Summit 2013:    (07)

"Ontology Evaluation Across the Ontology Lifecycle"
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?OntologySummit2013    (08)

 Description, Goals, and Objectives:
 Currently, there is no agreed methodology for development of  ontologies, and 
there are no universally agreed metrics for ontology  evaluation. At the same 
time, everybody agrees that there a lot of  badly engineered ontologies out 
there, thus people use -- at least  implicitly -- some criteria for the 
evaluation of ontologies.    (09)

 The goal for Ontology Summit 2013 is to identify best practices for  ontology 
development and evaluation.
 We will consider the entire lifecycle of an ontology -- from  requirements 
gathering and analysis, through to design and  implementation. In this 
endeavor, the Summit will seek collaboration  with the software engineering and 
knowledge acquisition communities.
 Research in these fields has led to several mature models for the  software 
lifecycle and the design of knowledge-based systems, and we  expect that 
fruitful interaction among all participants will lead to a  consensus for a 
methodology within ontological engineering.
 Following earlier Ontology Summit practice, the synthesized results of this 
season's discourse will be published as a Communique.    (010)

Three keys dates are already locked in:    (011)

(i) (pre-launch) community brainstorm and planning - Thu 2012.12.13 - starting 
9:30am PST / 12:30pm EST / 6:30pm CET / 17:30 GMT/UTC
(ii) first organizing committee meeting - Fri 2012.12.14 - starting 8:00am PST 
/ 11:00am EST / 5:00pm CET / 16:00 GMT/UTC
(iii) OntologySummit2013 Launch Event - Thu 2013.01.17 - starting 9:30am PST / 
12:30pm EST / 6:30pm CET / 17:30 GMT/UTC    (012)

Peter Yim will be sending a follow-up message with more information.    (013)

Looking forward to everyone's participation in these events in preparation for 
this year's Summit!    (014)

Ontology Summit 2013 Co-Chair    (015)
