The following event contains tutorials, a workshop and some presentations on OWL with Protege: Seventh International Protege Conference July 6-9, 2004, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, USA Call for Participation and for Workshop Proposals http://protege.stanford.edu/conference/2004/ The Seventh International Protege Conference will be held on July 6- 9, 2004. The meeting will take place at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. This meeting is traditionally a forum for users to meet one another and the Protege team and for us to meet you. We discuss common problems and solutions as well as current activities and plans. The meetings are fairly informal and also help the Protege team to set priorities for development work. This will be the first meeting to take place in North America in over 8 years, following a long series of very successful meetings in Europe. The schedule for the 7th International Protege Conference is now on-line at http://protege.stanford.edu/conference/2004/. We have a wide range of presentations planned, ranging from case studies in ontology design in various domains to tools and ontology-based applications. We are very happy to announce that Dr Christopher Welty (IBM Research) will give the keynote address at the conference. The topic of his talk will be "Ontology Maintenance Support: Texts, Tools, and Theories." Other program highlights include a poster and demo session, a "protege-discussion Live!" panel where the members of the Protege team will answer questions from the audience, and an open discussion of the future directions of Protege. This year's banquet will be held aboard a cruise ship sailing the Potomac river. Dinner, dancing, and fabulous views of the Washington D.C. skyline make this our most exciting banquet offering yet. Registration for the conference, tutorials and workshops is now open at: http://protege.stanford.edu/conference/2004/ *** Please note that early registration ends on May 28th. *** Note also that we are still solliciting workshop proposals, such as in the areas of (the list is not exhaustive): - ontology development - frames vs description logic - ontology development in OWL - standard terminologies - biomedical applications - other innovative applications - interoperability between different formats - plug-in development - visualization tools - project management - ontology tools - reasoning and inference For details, please see http://protege.stanford.edu/conference/2004/ We look forward to meeting as many of you as possible in Bethesda this July!
