== Ontology Summit 2013 Focus  ==
This is our 9th [[OntologySummit|Ontology Summit]], a joint initiative by [[NIST]], [[Ontolog]], [[NCOR]], [[NCBO]], [[IAOA]] & [[NCO_NITRD]] with the support of our co-sponsors. The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: "Big Data and Semantic Web Meet Applied Ontology"


'''Theme: "Ontology Evaluation Across the Ontology Lifecycle"'''
Since the beginnings of the Semantic Web, ontologies have played key roles in the design and deployment of new semantic technologies. Yet over the years, the level of collaboration between the Semantic Web and Applied Ontology communities has been much less than expected. Within Big Data applications, ontologies appear to have had little impact.


== Description, Goals & Objectives  ==
This year's Ontology Summit is an opportunity for building bridges between the Semantic Web, Linked Data, Big Data, and Applied Ontology communities. On the one hand, the Semantic Web, Linked Data, and Big Data communities can bring a wide array of real problems (such as performance and scalability challenges and the variety problem in Big Data) and technologies (automated reasoning tools) that can make use of ontologies. On the other hand, the Applied Ontology community can bring a large body of common reusable content (ontologies) and ontological analysis techniques. Identifying and overcoming ontology engineering bottlenecks is critical for all communities.


Currently, there is no agreed methodology for development of ontologies, and there are no universally agreed metrics for ontology evaluation. At the same time, everybody agrees that there are a lot of badly engineered ontologies out there, thus people use -- at least implicitly -- some criteria for the evaluation of ontologies.  
[[OntologySummit2014|Ontology Summit 2014]] will pose and address the primary challenges in these areas of interaction among the different communities. The Summit activities will bring together insights and methods from these different communities, synthesize  new insights, and  disseminate knowledge across field boundaries.  


The goal for Ontology Summit 2013 is to identify best practices for ontology development and evaluation. We will consider the entire lifecycle of an ontology -- from requirements gathering and analysis, through to design and implementation. In this endeavor, the Summit will seek collaboration with the software engineering and knowledge acquisition communities. Research in these fields has led to several mature models for the software lifecycle and the design of knowledge-based systems, and we expect that fruitful interaction among all participants will lead to a consensus for a methodology within ontological engineering. Following earlier Ontology Summit practice, the synthesized results of this season's discourse will be published as a Communiqu&eacute;.

Similar to our last 7 summits, this [[OntologySummit|Ontology Summit]] will comprise of three-and-a-half (3.5) months of virtual discourse (over our archived mailing lists) and virtual panel sessions (over augmented conference calls), and culminate in a 2-day face-to-face workshop/symposium held on May 2~3, 2013 (Thu & Fri) at NIST (Gaithersburg, Maryland, US) during which we, among other things, present our distilled thoughts in a collaboratively developed communique.

Ontology Summit 2014: Big Data and Semantic Web Meet Applied Ontology

9th in the series of a 3-month open annual event, by and for the Ontology Community and their collaborators. This Summit is co-organized by Ontolog, NIST, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD

Ontology Summit 2014 Focus

Theme: "Big Data and Semantic Web Meet Applied Ontology"

Description, Goals & Objectives

This is our 9th Ontology Summit, a joint initiative by NIST, Ontolog, NCOR, NCBO, IAOA & NCO_NITRD with the support of our co-sponsors. The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: "Big Data and Semantic Web Meet Applied Ontology"

Since the beginnings of the Semantic Web, ontologies have played key roles in the design and deployment of new semantic technologies. Yet over the years, the level of collaboration between the Semantic Web and Applied Ontology communities has been much less than expected. Within Big Data applications, ontologies appear to have had little impact.

This year's Ontology Summit is an opportunity for building bridges between the Semantic Web, Linked Data, Big Data, and Applied Ontology communities. On the one hand, the Semantic Web, Linked Data, and Big Data communities can bring a wide array of real problems (such as performance and scalability challenges and the variety problem in Big Data) and technologies (automated reasoning tools) that can make use of ontologies. On the other hand, the Applied Ontology community can bring a large body of common reusable content (ontologies) and ontological analysis techniques. Identifying and overcoming ontology engineering bottlenecks is critical for all communities.

Ontology Summit 2014 will pose and address the primary challenges in these areas of interaction among the different communities. The Summit activities will bring together insights and methods from these different communities, synthesize new insights, and disseminate knowledge across field boundaries.

Following earlier Ontology Summit practice, the synthesized results of this season's discourse will be published as a Communiqué.

Process & Deliverables

Similar to our last 8 summits, this Ontology Summit will comprise of three-and-a-half (3.5) months of virtual discourse (over our archived mailing lists) and virtual panel sessions (over augmented conference calls), and culminate in a 2-day face-to-face workshop/symposium held on April 28 & 29, 2014 (Mon & Tue) at NCO_NITRD (Arlington, Virginia, USA) during which we, among other things, present our distilled thoughts in a collaboratively developed communique.

  • Online Forum - active discussion is also carried on over the [ ontology-summit ] mailing list - see participation details here
    • When starting a new thread on the list, please prefix the subject line with one of the following track labels, and make sure message content are on topic (i.e. that the discussion/message relates well to the subject line):
      • {content} for Track A: Common Reusable Semantic Content
      • {tools} for Track B: Making use of Ontologies: Tools, Services, and Techniques
      • {challenges} for Track C: Overcoming Ontology Engineering Bottlenecks
      • {bigdata} for Track D: Tackling the Variety Problem in Big Data
      • {hackathon} for the Track E: Hackathon discussion
      • {communique} for discussions relating to the communique
      • {symposium} for Symposium related matters
      • {outreach} for Outreach related matters, including social media, web, sponsorships
      • ... etc. (sure you can get the gist of it!)
      • a combination like {aaaaa-bbbbb} (where "aaaaa" could be "extrinsic-aspects", etc.)
      • no prefix, if they don't belong to any discussion track
    • Discussion that are not focused on the theme of this summit (but is ontology-related) should be deferred to the [ ontolog-forum ] mailing list
