SECOND IEEE METADATA CONFERENCE September 16-17, 1997
NOAA Auditorium, NOAA Complex Silver Spring Metro Center
1301 East-West Highway Silver Spring, Maryland
Final Program for
Metadata '97
SECOND IEEE METADATA CONFERENCE
Sponsored by:
IEEE Computer Society Mass Storage Systems and
Technology Technical Committee,
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration,
Hughes Information Technology Systems, and
National Imagery and Mapping Agency.
In cooperation with IEEE Computer Society Digital Libraries Task Force.
The objectives of this conference are to (1) provide a forum to address
metadata issues faced by the various communities including mass storage,
data management, image and multimedia processing, and distributed
computing, as well as managers of networked heterogeneous information
servers, (2) bring the different communities together for technical
interchange of ideas on common technologies and standards related to
metadata; (3) hear the various perspectives from the users as well
as from the producers of metadata; and (4) facilitate the development and
usage of metadata. We invite participants from academia, government, and
industry to share ideas and experiences.
The technical program for the conference consists of papers, poster
presentations and panels addressing (among others) the following topics:
Metadata for:
- Management & modeling
- Semantic representation of the WWW
- Mass storage and warehousing
Metadata mining & extraction
Metadata catalogs
Systems for managing metadata
Application-specific metadata
Digital library metadata issues
Standards
Working systems
