[Asia-pacific-asist] A-LIEP/ICADL 2017 Conferences in Bangkok -- ASIS&T AP activities

[Khoo Soo Guan, Christopher (Assoc Prof)]

Friends,

I need your feedback and suggestions for ASIS&T AP activities at the A-LIEP/ICADL 2017 conferences in Bangkok (Nov 13-15).

A-LIEP and ICADL are co-located for the first time - 2 for the price of 1!
Actually 3 for the price of 1 -- as the ALIRG (Asia Library & Information Research Group) Workshop will be held on Nov 16-17 at Khon Kaen Univ in the northeastern part of Thailand (URL: https://alirgworkshop2017.wixsite.com/alirg2017).  Registration is free for the ALIRG Workshop

Traditionally, ASIS&T AP chapter will hold a chapter meeting and reception at the A-LIEP and ICADL conferences. But I'd like to do more this year.

Here's what I'm planning:

1. ½ day Workshop on Graph Database Applications

If you're doing research or teaching in Graph Database, Graph Mining or Graphical Visualization, please let me know and help me with this workshop!

2. Panel discussion on Multidisciplinary Research on Academic Writing, Reading & Thinking: Information Science and Digital Library Perspectives

Please let me know if you're doing research in this area.
This panel will explore the relation between academic writing, reading and thinking, including:
*  Information selection and use, and citation behavior in academic writing
*  Knowledge structures and argumentation in academic writing
*  Academic reading and thinking
*  Text mining, writing analytics and corpus-based analysis to support research, teaching and writing
*  Online resources and digital library applications to support academic writing
*  Academic writing in Asian languages

3. ASIS&T meeting and reception

This is for us to discuss how we can work together, and plan activities in 2018.

4. <what other activities would like us to organize? Not shopping, because there are great shopping malls all around the conference site!>

Best wishes,

n  chris
