> Topic Maps is an ISO standard for the organisation and interchange of
> information, based on a graph-like structure of topics and relationships.
> This talk is intended to provide an introduction to the Topic Maps model and
> to show how the standard can be applied to modelling a knowledge domain.
> As the session includes a short series of practical group exercises, please
> bring paper, pens, an idea for something to model and a willingness to jump
> in and get to grips with Topic Maps!
