Re: Chairs

Dear all,
Sorry, I was traveling for past two weeks, and couldn't get chance to
introduce myself.

I am Hemant Purohit, PhD advisee of Prof. Amit
Sheth<http://knoesis.org/amit> and
crisis response research coordinator, especially for the project
SoCS<http://knoesis.org/research/semsoc/projects/socs>, at
the Ohio Center of Excellence in Knowledge-enabled Computing
(Kno.e.sis<http://knoesis.org>),
US.

I am focusing on the actionability of the information for response phase
coordination and decision making [1,2], beyond the situation awareness
efforts during emergencies [3]. For the Spring season, I have been working
with Dr. Patrick Meier <http://irevolution.net/bio/> and Dr. Carlos
Castillo<http://www.linkedin.com/in/chato>at Qatar Computing Research
Institute (
QCRI <http://www.qcri.org>) to build information management framework that
will aid into needs and availability identification and management using
Twitter data streams.
