[Esip-preserve] CFP: Workshop on conceptual modeling in LAMS and data repositories

[andrea thomer]

Hi all,

I wanted to pass on a CFP of potential interest to this group -
I'm co-organizing a workshop on applications of conceptual modeling at the
upcoming JCDL meeting in June.  We'd love to see some papers from being the
usual JCDL suspects (for instance, earth science data repositories!).  Let
me know if you have any questions!

Call For Papers (full CFP: https://sig-cm.github.io/news/JCDL-CFP/)

*Workshop Description* Advances in digital libraries, archives, museums and
repositories have relied upon conceptual modeling efforts that provide
formal representation information and identity conditions for digital
resources. Examples include conceptual models traditional to library and
information sciences, such as Functional Requirements for Bibliographic
Records (FRBR), the uptake of data models from the semantic web, like the
Resource Description Framework (RDF), as well as the development of
protocols unique to the exchange of digital objects, such as the Open
Archives Initiative for Object Reuse and Exchange (OAI-ORE).

Sustaining this rich tradition of research and development in conceptual
modeling requires a collective effort from the digital library community.
This workshop focuses on critically evaluating and furthering existing
conceptual models, as well as developing an agenda for future research and
community-building around these topics.

*Contributions* We seek contributions from practitioners and researchers
interested in digital collections in different domains, especially
collections built upon different conceptual models emerging from different
epistemologies and different traditions of knowledge organization: natural
history museums, art museums, library special collections, archives, data
repositories, earth science informatics, biodiversity informatics, etc.
This may include topics relevant to conceptual modeling, including but not
limited to: - the history and evolution of conceptual models,

   - extensions to, or critiques of, existing conceptual models,
   - the development of domain-specific conceptual models (e.g. in the
   earth sciences, in the humanities, etc) applied strategies for modeling in
   development processes,
   - critical examination of the social and technical implications of
   conceptual models.

Contributions may be of two varieties:

   - *Full research papers* should present results from completed research,
   or fully developed conceptual analysis. Full research papers should be a
   maximum of 3000 words in length (not including citations).
   - *Short research papers* can present in-progress work, small case
   studies, position statements, or theoretical and conceptual analysis that
   is at an early stage of development. Short research papers should be a
   maximum 1500 words in length (not including citations).

*Dates*

   - Submission Deadline is April 25th
   - Notifications will be sent no later than April 29th
   - Accepted submissions can be revised before May 25th. At the time we
   will post all accepted submissions to the workshop website.
   - Workshop will take place June 6th.

*Instructions for Submission*
Please submit a PDF, DOC, or TXT document to nmweber at uw.edu by April 25th.
You may use any format or citation style that you prefer - However, we do
suggest following the conference’s ACM template
<https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>.
