Call for tutorial and workshop proposals at the 11th International Protege Conference

Apologies for multiple postings

This is a reminder that the deadline for submitting Tutorial and
Workshop proposals for the the 11th International Protege Conference
is March 2, 2009.

The 11th International Protege Conference will be held June 23-26,
2009 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

We invite proposals for workshops, to be held on the first day of the
conference, June 23, 2009. We expect workshops will be half-day
events. The purpose of the workshops are to provide an informal
setting for participants to discuss technical issues and to exchange
research ideas. We expect that most of the workshops will be
interactive events, centering on discussions rather than
presentations. We strongly advise having more than one organizer,
bringing different perspectives to the workshop topic. We also
encourage submitters to contact us before the deadline if there is any
concern about overlap with other similar workshop topics. Workshop
attendees must pay the conference registration fee.
