Workshop on Knowledge Markup and Semantic Annotation October 21, 2001, Victoria B.C., Canada <http://semannot2001.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/> in conjunction with the First International Conference for Knowledge Capture <http://sern.ucalgary.ca/ksi/K-CAP/K-CAP2001/> --- Call for Papers --- Capturing knowledge by using markup techniques and by supporting semantic annotations is a major technique for creating metadata. It is beneficial in a wide range of content-oriented intelligent applications. One important application, for instance, is the Semantic Web. Here, knowledge markup is a major challenge, i.e. the problem is providing knowledge structures for existing syntactic or multimedia resources. The workshop intends to bring together researchers and practitioners from such communities as W3C, MPEG-7, AI, Natural Language technologies and KR to discuss various aspects of knowledge markup and semantic annotation. Submission Papers: Practitioners and researchers interested in participating should submit either a full paper (less than 6000 words) or a position paper (less than 1500 words). Submit before July 15, 2001 in electronic form (postscript or pdf) to: handschuh@aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * web page annotation * collaborative, shared annotation * knowledge markup in the Semantic Web * ontology-based markup * using semantic annotations to define knowledge * tools for supporting knowledge markup * integrated software architecture based on semantic annotation * multimedia annotation (e.g. by using MPEG-7) * annotation of software components * linguistic aspects of semantic annotation * capturing knowledge through Information Extraction and NLP * text mining for creating knowledge markup * evaluation of manual annotation Although not required for the initial submission, we recommend to follow the format guidelines of K-Cap 2001 <http://sern.ucalgary.ca/ksi/K-CAP/K-CAP2001/CFP.html#submission-guidelines>, as this will be the required format for accepted papers.
