THE DESCRIPTION OF THE WORKSHOP "ORGANIZING KNOWLEDGE"
IRIS 22 WORKING GROUPS AND PAPERS
The IRIS 22 conference papers have been allocated to working groups (see Section "WORKING GROUPS" below). Authors of papers are by default in those working groups where their papers are. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the IRIS 22 conference chair Timo Käkölä (timo.kakola@cc.jyu.fi).
Participants without papers have not been allocated to working groups. They should contact the conference chair a.s.a.p. and tell in which working group they want to work, if they have not yet done so.
Preparing for the working groups
You should read as many of the papers as you can to maximally contribute to and benefit from the conference. There will be plenty of time for discussion. You should at least read the 6-7 papers in your working group. To facilitate discussion and ensure useful feedback to the authors, the following rules apply: (1) If you are an author of a paper you should pay particular attention to the paper listed after your own paper. (2) If you are participating without a paper you should pay particular attention to at least two papers of your own choice from your working group.
Authors should not prepare extensive oral presentations. A five minute presentation is usually enough as the basis for discussion. If the weather permits, the working group sessions will be held outside. Overhead projectors are thus unlikely to be available.
Please note that in IRIS 22 the printed proceedings will be delivered only at the conference site. The papers are available in PDF (Acrobat)-format below.
