Scope
The goal of the IEEE Meta-Data Conference is to encourage discussion of
metadata-related issues.

Papers that contribute to practical understanding, with an emphasis on best
encouraged. Innovative metadata projects or approaches that have achieved
maturity are welcome.

Papers presenting a vision that builds on the evolution of current
capabilities (e.g.,advanced search capabilities; data mining; knowledge
management for the novice and the expert; role of metadata in enabling
novel and sophisticated applications exploiting digital data across
heterogeneous environments) are of great interest. Survey papers, short
tutorial papers, and product or project experiences are also requested.

Previously published papers will not be considered.

Panel proposals should describe the topic, intended audience, and list the
likely participants. Panels should discuss topics that involve the audience
rather than being mini-paper sessions. Proposals for poster displays and/or
demonstrations should focus on presenting novel and interesting technical
aspects of metadata research or development. Soon-to-be products that
emphasize substantial technical support for metadata are also welcome.
