NKOS Special Session at DC 2008 Since the topics are not obvious from the DC 2008 conference programme (http://dc2008.de/programme), I want to point you and invite you to our NKOS Special Session (not a workshop, as stated in the programme) om Wednesday, September 24th, between 13.30 and 17.00 hours (Room 1.204). This session aims to demonstrate what NKOS (Networked Knowledge Organization) work could contribute to metadata solutions, especially to the main topic of the conference: Metadata for Semantic and Social Applications. Three main presentations will deal with a) KOS and social tagging in combination; b) Controlled vocabulary in metadata for semantic web usages; and c) Metadata and terminology registries: Synergies and differences. As much time as the presentations will be spend on comprehensive discussions lead by a discussant/enabler/opponent, involving colleagues from different communities. The detailed agenda, the names of the presenters and discussants, are on the preparation wiki page: http://colab.mpdl.mpg.de/mediawiki/NKOSevents_2008_preparation Hoping to see you soon in Berlin, Traugott Koch -- ?......................................................................
