T= he IAOA Summer Institute will bring together researchers from these domains= and explore topics in spatial representation and reasoning such as notions= of dimensionality, boundaries, shape, and location. It will in particular = explore the variety of spatial questions that are asked in these domains, a= nd how such questions help design and test spatial ontologies. - What are the commonalities and differences among the research problems th= at motivate the various communities that use spatial reasoning? - What are the types of spatial questions asked? - Why is there not more ontology reuse and sharing among these communities? - What applications drive the design of ontologies for spatial reasoning? For example, location services are increasingly important for many companie= s. Knowledge-based design of electromechanical devices with moving parts re= mains a challenge in manufacturing. Facilitators and Organization - Werner Kuhn (University of California, Santa Barbara) - Michael Gruninger (University of Toronto) - Simon Scheider (University of Utrecht) Participants from all sectors of geographical information systems, manufact= uring, and ontology engineering are invited to interact from July 22-25, 20= 19 at Utrecht University. As always, the Summer Institute will challenge th= e state of the art through lively discussions and hands-on problem solving = rather than lengthy presentations. The International Association for Ontolo= gy and its Applications (IAOA) is a non-profit organization the purpose of = which is to promote interdisciplinary research and international collaborat= ion at the intersection of philosophical ontology, linguistics, logic, cogn= itive science, and computer science, as well as in the applications of onto= logical analysis to conceptual modeling, knowledge engineering, knowledge m= anagement, information-systems development, library and information science= , scientific research, and semantic technologies in general. Registration Information You can register by sending an email to Michael Gruninger ([email protected]= oronto.ca). The registration fee is =80340. The deadline for registration is the 30th of June 2019!
