International Conference on Dublin Core
and Metadata Applications 2001
http://www.nii.ac.jp/dc2001/
Date: 22 - 26 October 2001
Venue: National Institute of Informatics, Tokyo, Japan
Sponsors: National Institute of Informatics (NII, http://www.nii.ac.jp/)
Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI, http://dublincore.org/)
National Diet Library (http://www.ndl.go.jp/)
Japan Science and Technology Corporation (JST,

Providing machine-understandable data on the Web has become a priority
not just for publishers and scientific communities, but for a wide
range of commercial ventures and services. Resource discovery across a
diversity of services on the emerging Semantic Web is facilitated by
the use of shared metadata vocabularies such as the Dublin Core
Metadata Element Set.
The Dublin Core workshop series has provided a forum for international,
cross-disciplinary metadata development since 1995. DC-2001, ninth in
this series, will include an international conference for the broader
metadata community with three principal missions:
-- to provide a forum to discuss further development of the Dublin Core
and related metadata standards
-- to provide a forum to present and exchange new ideas about metadata
and applications, not limited to Dublin Core, and
-- to provide tutorials on the creation, management, and use of
metadata applications.
DC-2001 is the first event in the DC Workshop series to be hosted in
Asia and is also the first event to include conference and tutorial
tracks in addition to the workshop.
The Workshop track (Monday-Wednesday, 22-24 October), will feature
technical meetings of ongoing working groups of the Dublin Core
Metadata Initiative. The agenda for the workshop track is under
development in DCMI Working Groups. All active members of working
groups, and others who would like to become active, are invited to
participate.
The Conference track (Wednesday-Friday, 24-26 October), will feature
paper presentations, tutorials and special sessions dedicated in
specific topics, e.g. Education and Government Information.
The advance program is attached below. DC-2001 is planning to
extend the conference program for a special session dedicated in
the Semantic Web activity of the World Wide Web consortium in
the afternoon on Friday October 26.
