The increasing number of digital archives, libraries and collections encompassing a variety of cultural heritage documents (such as manuscripts, books, prints, music scores, works of art, etc.) and the emphasis on making these materials accessible according to FAIR principles requires a well-planned knowledge engineering process: from crafting a model underlying a collection, through compiling metadata about individual documents and digital collections, and considering integration across systems of various institutions to exchange and complement information about collections, to supporting advanced processing scenarios in philological, historical, amateur research. The aim of the YODA workshop is to provide a venue for discussion of all the issues associated with such a process.
The goal of the workshop is to bring together people interested in developing ontology-based systems for storing cultural heritage artifacts in digital archives: collection curators, librarians, philologists, historians, enthusiasts and knowledge engineers. The only requirement is an interest in developing or using ontologies and ontology-based systems for cultural heritage. We warmly invite the experts in the areas of digital humanities who will talk about their expectations and research conducted using ontology-based systems, librarians and collection curators who have already implemented such solutions in their archives, as well as those who are merely planning to carry out the whole knowledge engineering process to develop ontologies in their institutions and will present the challenges they face.
Overall, we are interested in receiving papers related to the following topics which include but are not limited to:
We welcome researchers from all career stages to participate. We encourage three types of contributions, since a central goal of the workshop is to promote discussion and find synergies between the participants:
All research papers must be original and not submitted to or accepted by any other workshop, conference or journal. All contributions will be peer-reviewed, and the review process will be managed in a collaborative and transparent manner using the EasyChair System as part of the JOWO conference: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fois2024
Papers should be submitted non-anonymously in PDF format in compliance with the new 1-column CEUR-ART Style. See:
All contributions to JOWO workshops will be published in a joint CEUR proceedings volume.
