Semantic Web Collaborative Spaces such as semantic wikis, semantic social networks, semantic forums, etc. are social semantic software with the mission to bring together human agents and software agents in order to foster knowledge-intensive collaboration, content creation and management, annotated multimedia collection management, social knowledge diffusion and formalising, and more generally speaking ontology-oriented content management life-cycle.

The domain spans from multidisciplinary research to deployed commercial web applications and contributions from all this spectrum are encouraged. The aim of the SWCS 2012 workshop is to exchange ideas, to discuss pressing research questions arising from theoretical studies and practical usage of semantic web collaborative spaces.

KISSWIN congress: support for early career researchers

Friday, January 20th, 2012

On 2012-01-18 Wed I attended the KISSWIN congress, an information event about support for early career researchers:

  • career paths
  • funding possibilities
  • networking possibilities

Their homepage contains a lot of helpful information, which I can highly recommend – at least for getting started with things. The information applies to anyone interested in a scientific career in Germany. Not all information is as detailed as I would like it to be, but in addition they also offer career seminars:

Unfortunately, as any other project, KISSWIN is limited in time. If I understood correctly, the proper project will run until the end of 2012, whereas they intend to offer some services (such as the homepage) beyond that. So take the opportunities!
