OBJECTIVE
This forum is intended to bring together researchers from universities,
industry and government to discuss evolving research issues and applications
in digital libraries. Invited speakers will share their experiences in
building and using prototype systems, present their vision for the future,
and address applied and theoretical research related to such areas
as: capturing, and organizing of data, management of heterogeneous databases
and knowledge bases, and effective use of multimedia databases and knowledge
bases available on various national and international networks.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Searching Indexing
- Resource Discovery
- Scalability
- Standards
- Compression
- Browsing
- Information Representation
- Interoperability
- Knowledge Discovery
- Intelligent Agents
The forum will feature keynote addresses, invited talks, regular sessions,
and panel discussions. In addition, several follow-up workshops will be held
in conjunction with the forum on May 18 and 19
INFORMATION TO AUTHORS
Authors interested in participating in the forum are invited to electronically
