FYI.  Is there any interest in a Geoscience session?

ps--apologies for missing the meeting in a few minutes, I'm still on a
train.

                              US2TS Call for Sessions Proposal

                                        http://us2ts.org/2019/

============================================================



Semantic Web is an inherently multi-disciplinary field. With an
ever-growing dependence on the Web and the continuously increasing
importance of large-scale data sharing, integration, and reuse, natural
science researchers, geoscience, biology, library science, health care,
the humanities, just to name a few, have also taken an increasing
interest in the Semantic Web.  The U.S. Semantic Technologies Symposium
(US2TS) series provide a forum to ease the division between computer
science, natural science, and academia/government/industry.



We solicit anyone with an interest in the Semantic Web to propose a
session for US2TS 2019. A session is any scientifically relevant
activity that can fit into a 90 minutes slot (you can also propose a
session that takes more than one slot).



Examples of sessions are:



. a panel discussion

. a series of presentations on a topic

. breakout-style discussions on a proposed topic

. a tutorial

. etc.



As the main goal of the Symposium is to foster synergies and
collaborations from different fields, we strongly recommend that:

1. At least 2-3 people, preferably from different institutions, propose
the session.

2. All the session leaders are asked to confirm and commit to
participate at the time of submission.

3. If your proposal already names speakers or panelists, you must state
whether their participation is already confirmed.

We encourage session proposals about cross-discipline topics which are
of concern for participants from existing sub-communities



Submission Guidelines

- --------------------------------------

Please prepare a (max) 2 page submission indicating:



. Name of the session

. Topic: please indicate which cross-discipline topics the session will
tackle. Here you can also specify if there is any particular vertical of
interest (e.g. legal, life science, medical, publisher/scholarly data,
cultural heritage, library, museum, oil/gas, engineering, airplane,
e-commerce, etc)

. Type of session: Panel | Presentations | Break-out discussion |
Tutorial | Other (please specify)

. Short description of the session

. The 2/3 person team (names & affiliations) that will lead the session

. Speakers(when applicable). It is strictly required to specify the
speakers if you are proposing a panel, in which case they must be
already confirmed.

. Expected participation (give a prediction of who would be interested
in attending your session)

. Submit your proposal on easychair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=us2ts.



Symposium outcome
