Dear All, I would like to introduce my self and apologize for not participating in the previous telecos. I will be participating in the following telecos. I am Vassilis Tzouvaras, senior researcher in the National Technical University of Athens and my participation in this WG is through a European Research project dealing with multimedia and semantics, entitled K-space. I have previous experience in standardization activities especially in W3C. I participated in the Multimedia Annotation Task Force (part of SWBPD WG) and the MMSEM XG. I have also contributed in the RIF and OWL 2 WGs. My research interests include multimedia applications, SemWeb technologies, Cultural Heritage applications. I have been involved in the creation of various multimedia ontologies in various European projects. Also, I have been involved in Cultural heritage application that use AI technologies. I have experience understanding and using metadata standards such as DC, Cidoc-Crm, EAD, etc. The focus in my work is how to achieve syntactic and semantic interoperability using alignment, reasoning and query algorithms. Finally, I participate in the technical team of the Europeana initiative. I am interested in most of the usecases of the WG, but I have special interest in the Cultural use case.
