Daylight Saving Time! * * *

feature session-02 of the mini-series on "Ontology, Rules, and Logic
Programming for Reasoning and Applications" (dubbed:
"RulesReasoningLP") this coming Thursday, 31-Oct-2013. ... RSVP Now
(details below)!


* Date: Thursday, 31-Oct-2013

* Expected Call Duration: ~2.0 hours


This session is co-chaired by Dr. Leo Obrst and Dr. Harold Boley, and
will be the first of two sessions devoted to addressing the concepts

== Abstract ==

This is the first session of the RulesReasoningLP mini-series. This
will be a series of virtual panel sessions, and the associated online
discourse, co-championed by some members of the Ontolog community who
value the importance of the subject matter and would want to bring
together those who are knowledgeable or interested into a dialog. The
mini-series program will cover the topics that encapsulates the
ontology-driven applications that will generally fall under "Ontology,
Rules, and Logic Programming for Reasoning and Applications."

The RulesReasoningLP mini-series program has come together through two
open community brainstorm sessions, held on 2013.07.25 (covering
mainly program content) and 2013.09.12 (covering mainly the
organization and scheduling).

Joining us at our Launch Event today, are a number of community and
technology leaders. They, along with our mini-series co-champions,
will be delivering a range of opening remarks, right after our
co-chairs' overview of the mini-series program. These remarks will,
collectively provide diverse perspectives on why the theme chosen for
this mini-series is important, and what we should try to achieve.

After the opening remarks, our co-chairs, Dr. LeoObrst and Dr.
BenjaminGrosof, will provide a survey of the subject matter and the
scope of this mini-series. They will each take on some aspects
outlined, and provide an introduction on key concepts and technologies
involved, to prepare the participants for the exciting program content
that will be rolled-out in the ensuing mini-series sessions.
