The 17th International Conference on Knowledge Engineering and  
Knowledge Management is concerned with all aspects of eliciting,  
acquiring, modeling and managing knowledge, and its role in the  
construction of knowledge-intensive systems and services for the  
semantic web, knowledge management, e-business, natural language  
processing, intelligent information integration, etc.

We seek high quality proposals for workshops about topics related to  
the conference. Of particular interest are proposals that address one  
of the following areas:

1) Knowledge Management
2) Knowledge Engineering and Acquisition
3) Knowledge In Use
4) Social and Cognitive Aspects of Knowledge Engineering
5) Special focus knowledge management and engineering by the masses
    * Human-machine synergy in knowledge acquisition
    * Incentives for knowledge creation and semantic annotation
    * Enhancing human productivity (e.g. knowledge workers)
    * Social and human factors in knowledge management
    * Collective and collaborative intelligence in knowledge management
    * Social tagging and folksonomies, social networks
    * Web2.0 approaches to KM (including semantic wikis, folksonomies,  
etc.)
    * Games with a Purpose and KM
    * Linked Open Data / Web of Data


Submission details

with a subject line of:" EKAW 2010 Workshop Proposal"

EKAW workshops provide an informal setting where the participants have  
the opportunity to discuss specific technical topics in an atmosphere  
that fosters the active exchange of ideas. Our aim for the workshop  
program is to promote and collect multidisciplinary research  
directions that contribute to knowledge management and engineering.  
Members from all research areas related to knowledge are invited to  
submit workshop proposals.
