I am attaching a "Call for Papers" for a conference September 22-24 on a cruise ship traversing between Stockholm and Helsinki. I am chairing the track on "Shaping future success through innovation, intelligence and knowledge” and welcome your abstract submissions. Please consider submitting an abstract yourself or suggest the idea to a colleague with interests in this sphere. Thanks in advance for your consideration and/or for sharing this notice with others!
Hi Martha: We (the conference organizers -- which are several universities including Tampere University of Technology where I am on the faculty) am looking for "academic" treatments including case studies, tools, descriptive models, etc. It is an "academic" meeting more or less, although we have always had practitioners presenting and speaking as well. As a "track chair," I am not certain of the arrangements for speakers but would encourage you to connect with the individual (-s) named on the call to inquire about that. Thanks for asking.
The audience generally includes academics (a majority of whom will be from neighbouring countries), local business leaders, and policy or government officials. If the "local person" has something new, innovative, or thought provoking to share, than we would have an interest in them. We are not looking for "how to do it" sessions like we'd have at SCIP. More to the point, the sessions here will look much more like the academic track at SCIP than anything else. I hope this helps.
Well getting a clean feed takes a combination of good web-sources and appropriate taxonomy-based semantic filters. It seems your friend's RSS is clean and thus it may be worth to look at his/her taxonomy. Any insight?
Indeed Richard you seem pretty well covered as far as information retrieval is concerned.
What about analysis, sharing, collaboration with others? What about aggregating those feeds together?
Any insights would be helpful.
I use e-sobi. It is a rss and podcast feed reader. I can add the feeds I want, I can store pages for later use, I can set alerts. Seems to be more powerful than the free readers. SInce you can organize it the way you want, it provides a way to quick…
