Re: Quantum Superposition and Democracy
It is funny that you should mention eGovernance in relation to quantum superposition. I would like to venture the hypothesis that corruption, i.e. the lack of integrity, governance and rule of law shows a lot of similarity in terms of quantum entanglement and Bell's theorem for the paired actors and paired processes involved.

Quantum Superposition and Democracy
Dutch researchers announced yesterday they had succeeded in "reliably" transmitting information between quantum bits separated by 3 meters. This relies on Quantum Superposition, what Einstein called “spooky action at a distance.” (he liked things more classical). For the Web this is exciting news, geniuses (Einstein and Heisenberg matching wits for the future of the Universe), for governments, it is about 4 thousand years older, but still exciting technology. Truth is that separate agencies of government acting autonomously are "The Government" in aggregate and use the principle of superposition on a regular basis. It is also called The Rule of Law. Please do next year what we tell you this year (to do next year) - eat, drink, be merry, land on Mars and oh, pay taxes. Naturally a Strategy Markup Language (StratML) needs the tools to see several steps ahead. This form generates a StratML Performance Plan template for various common time frames in use in the Public and Private Sectors. http://www.rustprivacy.org/2014/balance/gts/StratML-GTS.html The connection to Government Business is also illustrated on this page. There is a pitfall. Human Resources - Civil Servants and Citizens - as well as natural disasters cannot wait until the "next scheduled report" A further general comments and methods about "Seasonal Awareness" are detailed here: http://www.rustprivacy.org/2014/balance/gts/ Enjoy, Gannon

Re: Last CFP: LinkQS: Workshop on Linking The Quantified Self at Hypertext 2014
Dear Sirs, When was the first Call for Papers posted? I have only received a 2nd CfP on May 19 and the Last CfP on May 29 thru semantic-...@w3.org and public-lod@w3.org. We are very much interested in submitting the white paper that we are preparing on Quantified Human States Data that unifies all spatio-temporal data collection of human beings, whether from remote, short range and long range tracking, GPS and GSM data tracking, online big data mining, ALL fields of eHealth, mHealth, quantified self, access control data and all data tracking involving quantified human states data involving spatio-temporal components, which also includes public administrative records for e.g. intellectual property registration and civil records, court records etc. Our white paper is scheduled to be sent to EU bodies and the ISO-IEC-JTC-1. Because we learned only recently of this workshop through the 2nd and final CfPs we will miss the deadline. Any way of delaying the submission date for those like me who also never got the first CfP?

These data can be internal states (such as mood or glucose level in the blood) or indicators of performance (such as the kilometers run). The purpose of collecting these data is self-monitoring, performed in order to gain self-knowledge or some kind of change or improvement (behavioral, psychological, therapeutic, etc.). Although the current spread on the market of these kinds of tools, many issues arise when we consider their usage in the daily lives of common people, such as the meaningfulness and utility of the gathered data for the final users. We can think to address some of these issues looking beyond the Quantified Self for finding new technologies and design techniques that could be applied to this field. One of the main challenges of self-tracking data is that it comes in heterogeneous and often very unstructured form. One of the possible ways is leveraging Semantic Web techniques for integrating heterogeneous data originated from different devices and applications and give them some kind of structure. In Quantified Self, in fact, the information gathered by QS tools are scattered in autonomous silos, that can hardly be meshed together in order to provide users a complete and satisfying mirror of their behaviors and physical or psychological states. Besides, often QS tools simply juxtapose different data in their visualizations but they are not able to highlight meaningful correlations and provide structures for the data gathered. Given that the quantified-self trend is just gaining momentum, it is not unlikely that we will soon have more and more users who create their own personal repositories, also referred to lifelogs. Structuring the data in these lifelogs is of particular importance in the context of user modeling. User Modeling techniques can provide useful insights for reasoning on data gathered, since users are not only in search of the possibility to visualize their behavioral data, but also to receive useful suggestions for improving their habits and behavior. Although QS tools have at their disposal huge amount of data on user behavior, they are not currently exploiting them for modeling users and providing them personalized recommendations. Other topics of interest regard privacy and security issues for the data gathered, since users perceive QS data as extremely private and are constantly worried about their final destination. Both aspects are

It is also particularly interesting for us to gather together with other data-intensive projects to discuss the intersection of their approaches with the Semantic Web technologies. Please, notice that the track will be available in the system only in the following weeks; so in the meantime you have to properly label with "Linked Data track" your proposal. Thanks for anything you can to do help get the word out about the CFP, so that we can have the best ApacheCon content yet.
