CI 2008

hosted by National Electronics and Computer Technology Center (NECTEC), Thai Computational Linguistics Lab (TCL), NICT

 

Increasing global competitive environment imposes the compelling need to identify new paradigms, methods, applications and technologies to better support creativeness and innovation. Collective Intelligence (CI), an emerging form of Collaborative Networks, has enabled the capacity of human communities to evolve in the development of such technological and innovative mechanisms, especially via the Internet. The recent successes of systems like Google and Wikipedia reveal the opportunity for many more such systems and activate a number of research and development issues in the area.

 

Introduction of Semantic Webs along the progress of Web 2.0 can largely impact the way and the effectiveness in which Information Retrieval can be employed much more efficiently. This will be an important step to enhance the capability of CI frameworks. In the opposite sight, the CI network itself provides a potential framework in incorporating semantic and knowledge representations in modern websites.

This workshop is then a premier forum to enable practitioners, researchers as well as developers to present, demonstrate and share the results and/or achievements of their work in the broad domain of Collective Intelligence and Collective Semantic Webs. The areas of interest, in supportive tool, application, and service perspectives, include but not limited to

• Societies, cultures, and languages

• Productivity and profit

• Social and environmental problems

• Future and event predictions

• Open source software development

• Knowledge creation, Knowledge management, and learning

• Community networking and functioning supports

• Semantic webs for cooperative networks

Workshop Format

The workshop will be one-day session mixed with invited speakers on relevant or related topics on CI and qualified papers submitted after a Call for Paper. Authors are requested to submit a 4-6 page paper to the Submission page. Notification of acceptance will be via Email and on this website.
