Epistemic Networks and GRID + Web 2.0 for Arts and Humanities

00/00/

A workshop series organized by Dolores Iorizzo, Internet Centre, Imperial College London.

The aim of this workshop is to focus on developing a strategy for the implementation of core technologies for epistemic networks in the arts and humanities on an international scale. It will bring together GRID computing specialists with researchers from Classics, Literature and History who have been involved in the creation and use of electronic resources.

The core technologies the workshop will focus on are:

* infrastructure;
* named entity, identity and co-reference services;
* morphological services and parallel texts;
* epistemic networks and virtual research environments.

It will bring together expertise from the UK, US, and European funded projects to agree upon a common strategy for the development of core infrastructure and web-services for the arts and humanities that will enable the use of GRID technologies for advanced research.

Please contact Dolores Iorizzo (d.iorizzo@ic.ac.uk) for more information and send registration details to Glynn Cunin (g.cunin@imperial.ac.uk).
