About the event

WP4 organizes an workshop on August 6th - 7th, at Delft University of Technology. The goal of the workshop is to advance the state of the art on the WiseML description language and study the possibility of integration with the various tools developed within this project. We would like to cover at least the following topics:

1.  Refine definition of WiseML - planning session/design session

2.  Extension of WiseML to include description of experiment setup

3.  Integration with Shawn – tutorial on shawn/design session

4.  Integration with TARWIS - tutorial/design session

5.  Data sets metrics (how good is a data set, how complete, etc.) - brainstorm/planning session

6.  Integration/translation of other data sets from the project to WiseML

7.  Dissemination of WiseML/data sets (website, advertising, conference paper) - brainstorm/planning session
