Conference blogging, second try. This time it’s COSIT in Melbourne and the chance that I will find time to give you some updates is much bigger than it was at GI-Days, because I’m just one of the attendees in this case. We arrived Tuesday morning (after a 24 hours flight), so we still had one day left to have a look at the beautiful surroundings of the conference venue. On Wednesday, the activities started with a series of pre-conference workshops. I gave a talk at the semantic similarity measurement workshop, with some quite constructive feedback. A lot of good ideas were presented at the workshop, with lively discussions. At the dinner, I found myself sitting next to Deborah McGuiness from Stanford (one of the developers of OWL), so that was quite interesting for me, too, as OWL is one of the things we are heavily using in our SimCat project. Today will start with a keynote talk by Deborah, so I will have to take off now to make sure I don’t miss it.

Write to you later…
