This one-day workshop presents the latest research on semantic integration - the software, devices and interfaces. Issues and opportunities raised by Semantic Integration including technical, social, and economic.
Description:
Computer information is currently stored in isolated silos:

· email, SMS and Twitter archives
· presence information (including physical, psychological and social)
· maps (including firms, points of interest, traffic, parking, and weather)
· events (including alerts and status)
· documents (including presentations, spread sheets, proposals, job applications, health records, photos, videos, gift lists, memos, purchasing, contracts, articles)
· contacts (including social graphs and reputation)
· search results (including rankings and ratings)
· data bases (including relational and geospatial)

Technology is now at hand to Semantically Integrate all of the above information for individuals, groups and organizations raising important economic, social, and technical issues.
