The theme adopted for this Ontology Summit is: "Ontology Evaluation Across the Ontology Lifecycle." Currently, there is no agreed methodology for development of ontologies, and there are no universally agreed metrics for ontology evaluation. At the same time, everybody agrees that there are a lot of badly engineered ontologies out there, thus people use -- at least implicitly -- some criteria for the evaluation of ontologies. During this OntologySummit, we seek to identify best practices for ontology development and evaluation. We will consider the entire lifecycle of an ontology -- from requirements gathering and analysis, through to design and implementation. In this endeavor, the Summit will seek collaboration with the software engineering and knowledge acquisition communities. Research in these fields has led to several mature models for the software lifecycle and the design of knowledge-based systems, and we expect that fruitful interaction among all participants will lead to a consensus for a methodology within ontological engineering. Following earlier Ontology Summit practice, the synthesized results of this season's discourse will be published as a Communique. At the Launch Event on 17 Jan 2013, the organizing team provided an overview of the program, and how we will be framing the discourse around the theme of of this OntologySummit. Today's session is one of the events planned. In this 11th virtual panel session of the Summit, we are launching the OntologySummit2013 Hackathon & Clinics program, a series of activities that will take place over the 3 coming weekends. Seven (7) Hackathon-Clinics projects with particular relevance to the OntologySummit and/or this year's "Ontology Evaluation" theme were identified from among the proposals received, and will be featured virtually on Mar-30, Apr-6 and Apr-13. During this session, we will hear about this Hackathon-Clinics; its objectives, what each featured project will entail, the calendar, schedule, process, facilities and expert consultation support and other relevant details. Besides the collaborators who have signed up to participate in these projects, the program is open to all who are interested. Drop-in participants are welcome to participate or observe as these Hackathon-Clinics projects take place. Find out the details today, and come join us when these projects are featured! ****************** These sessions, like all Ontolog virtual events, are open and free of charge. Anyone who is interested, or (better still) who may have something to contribute, is welcome. Please refer to event details on the session pages, to which the hyperlink is given above, where you will find session agenda, conference call dial-in, slides and other pertinent information. Feel free to pass this invitation along to colleagues who may also find these sessions to be of interest. *RSVP* by emailing Peter Yim at <[email protected]> offline (or add yourself directly to the session page if you are already an Ontolog or Ontology Summit community member) so that we can prepare enough resources to support everyone. [Please state clearly the date of the session you are registering for in your email.] ... All respondents will be subscribed (if they aren't already so) to the [ontology-summit] mailing list so they are participate in the virtual discourse. These sessions will be recorded and made available in a publicly accessible archive.
