The Committee emphasizes that the scope of the DC-2003 Conference Track is
broad in the sense that it is NOT limited to research and development
focusing solely on the Dublin Core metadata element set. Rather, the
Conference Track seeks to bring together researchers and implementers
concerned with metadata issues in a broad array of contexts as those issues
affect both cross-domain and discourse/practice community resource
discovery, retrieval, use and management.

Papers and posters in the following categories of metadata and related
topics are encouraged:

        * Conceptual models and fundamental principles
        * Globalization and localization
        * Community or domain metadata (statistical, government,
        geo-spatial, etc.)
        * Enterprise metadata
        * Metadata registries and registry services
        * Application Profiles
        * Interoperability among metadata systems and standards
        * Search engines and metadata
        * Implementation of systems and tools for metadata applications

All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the DC-2003 Program Committee and
accepted papers and posters will be published on line and in print as the
DC-2003 Conference Proceedings.  All accepted papers are expected to be
presented by one or more of the authors at the conference.

Cordially,

Stuart Sutton & Jane Greenberg, DC-2003 Program Committee Co-Chairs
