The 2nd UK Ontology Network Workshop, April 11th 2013
The second UK Ontology Network workshop will take place at the University of Edinburgh:
Informatics Forum, Room G07 Information on getting to Edinburgh can be found here The theme of this meeting is to understand how ontology development and application are being used to address problems in the UK. Amongst other areas of interest, there will be a particular focus on creating and using open data. The program and audience is intentionally very diverse; the aim is to cover areas from many disciplines. We are particularly interested in bringing together those creating and developing the technology with those using the technology in industry, government and public organisations. The day is split into three sessions; a morning of 5 minute 'headline talks' from a wide range of areas followed by a short time for discussion after each talk, early afternoon 10 minute software and technology demos, late afternoon 'birds of a feather' networking. |

You can find the list of attendees here .
On the evening of the 10th we will be having an OntoHappening in the pub.
There will be no formal dinner for the meeting because we thought people going out in smaller, spontaneous groups would be more conducive to exciting discussions. You can use our pub and restuarant guide to find somewhere you'd like to go.
Registration is now closed. If you have not registered but would like to attend please contact Andriana Gkaniatsou (agkaniat@inf.ed.ac.uk).
The fee is £ 20 per person and includes refreshments and meals during the workshop.
The Centre for Intelligent Systems and their Applications (CISA) is offering some sponsorship for student travel. There will be two awards of up to £ 200 each. If you are intested, please send a short paragraph about your research interests and why you think you would benefit from attending, together with a few words of support from your supervisor to f.j.mcneill@ed.ac.uk. Notes of interest should be submitted by March 27th; decisions will be made shortly after.
