                                             Workshop on

                      Knowledge Markup and Semantic Annotation
                       October 25-26, 2003 at Sanibel, Florida, USA
                    <http://km.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/ws/semannot2003>

                                           Workshop at the
                Second International Conference for Knowledge Capture
                    <http://sern.ucalgary.ca/ksi/K-CAP/K-CAP2003/>
                      K-CAP'2003 is held in conjunction with the
             2nd International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2003)



                                     --- Call for Papers ---

Capturing knowledge by using markup techniques and by supporting
semantic
annotations is a major technique for creating metadata. It is beneficial
in a wide range of content-oriented intelligent applications.  One
important application, for instance, is the Semantic Web. Here,
knowledge
markup is a major challenge, i.e. the problem is the providing of
knowledge
structures for existing syntactic or multimedia resources.  The
workshops
intend to bring together researchers and practitioners from such
communities
as W3C, MPEG-7, AI, Natural Language technologies and KR to discuss
various
aspects of knowledge markup and semantic annotation.


Submission Papers:
Practitioners and researchers interested in participating should submit
either a full paper (less than 6000 words) or a position paper (less
than 1500
words) addressing relevant issues. Submit before July 21, 2003
in electronic form (pdf) to: handschuh at aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de.

Topics of Interest includes, but are not limited to:

* authoring/annotation tools
* web page annotation
* collaborative, shared annotation
* knowledge markup in the Semantic Web
* ontology-based markup
* using semantic annotations to define knowledge tools for supporting
knowledge markup
* integrated software architecture based on semantic annotation
* multimedia annotation (e.g. by using MPEG-7)
* image/picture annotation
* linguistic aspects of semantic annotation
* capturing knowledge through Information Extraction and NLP
* text mining for creating knowledge markup
* evaluation of manual annotation
* Usage of Annotations, e.g. learning resource metadata


Although not required for the initial submission, we recommend to follow
the format guidlines of K-Cap 2001
<http://sern.ucalgary.ca/ksi/K-CAP/K-CAP2001/CFP.html#submission-guidelines>,
as this will be the required format for accepted papers.
